Almost 600 participants attended the 3rd edition of the Translating Europe Forum, devoted this year to translation tools and technologies. During 16 sessions and hands-on workshops, 54 speakers from the translation industry, EU and national institutions, the academia and the IT sector addressed the topic from different perspectives, highlighting the needs and priorities of all actors of the translation world. Vice-President of the European Commission Kristalina Georgieva, Director-General of the Directorate General for Translation of the European Commission Rytis Martikonis and the keynote speakers of the two days, Andrew Bredenkamp and Jost Zetzsche, set the tone for the discussions, inspiring and motivating participants to embrace technologies in order to thrive in the profession. Special attention was given to involve young translators and translation students in the discussion, in the tradition of the Translating Europe Forum. SCIT was represented by its Deputy Director Angelique Antonova.
