I'm kind of allergic to everything business event-related. If those events take place during weekdays I prefer to work and earn money instead. If they take place during the weekend I have much better things to do.

Today, I’ll be working on a translation and tomorrow I’ll be doing my invoicing for this month. I could organize myself and my time differently but I must say that the event programme doesn’t inspire me (too much focused on AI for my liking)…

I am not a fan of online events, I prefer in-person/onsite events. When I don't work, I prefer to get off the screen.

I'd love to participate... Sep 28, 2023

...but the timing of the event collides with me having to finish an important project.
Definitely next time!

I fail to see any additional value in attending an online event rather than working on existing jobs.

One presentation Sep 28, 2023

The majority is about AI, which I don't have any interest in whatsoever. But there's one nice presentation about communication with direct clients, which I'd like to see.

How to catch up? Sep 29, 2023

Missed a couple of sessions yesterday – is there a way to catch up? I'm a Standard member, not Plus.

Hi Julia,

Thank you for expressing your interest in the event! Let me take this opportunity and extend my warmest congratulations on International Translation Day!

Plus membership subscribers get unlimited access to the videos of the ProZ/TV presentations. After the ITD 2023 ProZ/TV event, a package with the video presentations will be available for sale for non-Plus subscribers at training.proz.com.

Hope this helps.

All the best,
Helen

Shame Sep 29, 2023

It's a shame that paying members don't get access to ITD content after it's aired live like they used to. The events aren't taking place in my time zone and I'm working on a project today so it would have been nice to have a look at the content next week. Oh well.

I've been jumping in and out. It's interesting although I agree with others who've said there's too much emphasis on ChatGPT and AI in general.
