Hi All,

A quick post to inform you about the Translation and Localization Conference in Bengaluru on 21st February 2014. The tcworld conference, as it is called, will be held at the Taj Vivanta Hotel in Bangalore and will have an entire track dedicated to translation & localization.

This year, along with Trans Infopreneur, three other Indian Language Service Providers have come together to form a Consortium to showcase the abilities of our industry and to help each one you find more opportunities in terms of work, jobs, information as well as tools. The Consortium of Indian Translation & Localization Companies (CITLoC) apart from focusing on services such as Translation, Localization, Multilingual DTP, Voice Overs, Subtitling, Consulting and Tools will also have a unique ‘Jobs using languages’ counter to help you.

The translation and localization industry in India is witnessing rapid changes and you would find it difficult to benefit from the opportunities that are being thrown up if you do not keep yourself updated with the latest trends and technology. Industry bodies such as the Globalization And Localization Association (GALA, USA) and Commonsense Advisory Inc. will be there and so would a host of other prominent national and international speakers. You are sure to go back with a fresh perspective of things and also make some useful contacts to grow your business.

It would be a great opportunity for freelance translators, LSPs, translators working in companies, heads of language institutes and teachers and I urge you to spread the word.
