Body
2007 Language Summit
A forum on translation, localization, and interpreting unifying academia, government, and industry.
The Brigham Young University Center for Language Studies announces the second annual national Translation Summit, Monday March 12, 2007, in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Although largely invisible to the public in the United States, professional translation plays an essential role in the success of corporations, government agencies, and other organizations whose mission extends beyond an audience of speakers of American English.

The Translation Summit is the only event that brings together leading players from every major sector of the translation world: academia, government and industry. Sponsors of the Summit include major professional, trade, and government organizations in the world of translation.

The focus of this event will be on cooperation. The structure of the conference is intended to encourage cross-sector interaction, each organization focusing on achieving their global mission through multilingual communication that is appropriate for winning and keeping customers and building market share. Such appropriate global communication consists of translations produced in the most efficient manner, at the best value without sacrificing effectiveness.
