An annual professional conference for translators and interpreters will once again bring together language professionals from across Israel and around the world for a day dedicated to learning, dialogue, and meaningful community connection.
Designed as both an academic and social gathering, the conference combines in-depth lectures from leading Israeli and international experts with dedicated opportunities for networking, discussion, and professional exchange. The organizers emphasize that the event is not only a platform for knowledge, but also a space for shared reflection on the present and future of the profession.
The program will explore how the rise of artificial intelligence is reshaping professional responsibility, translator competencies, and collaboration with technology — alongside sessions on localization practices, legal and academic translation, and broader questions of professional identity and mission.
Beyond formal lectures, the conference will include community-oriented sessions, open conversations, and interactive discussions designed to encourage dialogue between practitioners at different stages of their careers. Participants will be invited to share experience, express concerns, and explore opportunities emerging from technological and market change.
The organizers view the conference as an opportunity to strengthen professional solidarity in a field that often involves independent or freelance work. By creating a forum for connection and mutual support, the event aims to foster a sense of belonging and shared purpose among translators and interpreters.
At the same time, the conference offers a chance to expand professional networks, discover new collaborations, and connect with colleagues, researchers, and representatives from the broader language-services ecosystem.
In an era marked by rapid technological transformation, the event seeks to balance innovation with human connection — emphasizing that the translation profession is not only about technology and workflows, but also about values, community, and the exchange of ideas.
The conference invites participants to engage, collaborate, and take an active role in shaping the professional conversation about the future of translation and interpreting.
