The Translation and Localization Conference, one of the top industry events (37 ratings of 5/5, 3300+ followers on social media, 150+ speakers, 1500+ participants from 35 countries) to take place for the eighth time in Warsaw, has announced that an all-industry survey will be conducted as part of the conference.

Every year, TLC focuses on technological and sociological issues which shape the day-to-day life of translation agencies and translators alike. The upcoming edition takes a look at practical skills and knowledge that will be of the essence in the very near future –only a year ahead from now.

The organizers decided to use the event as an opportunity to conduct a large-scale all-industry survey concerning what type of skills and knowledge are likely to be useful for working in the translation industry in 2020.

The results of the survey will be published as a report on the conference’s website. They will also serve as a basis for a debate on the same topic, to be held at the close of  day one of the conference. Experts representing various fields of the language industry will attend as panelists.
