Description:

Today's translators and interpreters will not be replaced by machines, but rather, they will be replaced by other translators and interpreters using state-of-the art technologies. Be one of the latter.

This talk provides recommendations to keep pace with the changes of our instantly connected world and so avoid becoming professionally obsolete. You will understand some of the new tools that are becoming fundamental to our profession and hear about a new set of skills you need to develop to work in the global village of the 21st century.

Understand how technology has transformed our profession. Pledge to embrace the change, instead of opposing it. Learn the benefits of becoming tech-savvy. To stay in the loop of progress, translators and interpreters need to become part of the digital revolution. Our professional survival depends on our ability to adapt to the constant transformation in the means of communication.
