Conference feedback

Drew MacFadyen.. Thank you for this nice event. Unfortuantely, I can not find my pdf attendance for this event. Only 2015 is there in my profile and the details of this year but no certificate whatsoever for 2016. Could you do somethinf about this issue please. Waiting your reply.


It was stunning. The conference was really one of a kind. I really got much benefit from this conference. Thanks to you it was a unique conference hoping to have such an experience again. Many thanks Proz.


Great event! I have learned so much about different translation tools (since I haven't used any of them yet), so much useful information!


It waw agreat and helpful conference. I'm glad I still ahve to attend the sessions I missed


Thanks for yet another virtual conference.
Being "down under", many of the sessions happen in the middle of the night, so I really appreciate that they are made accessible on demand after the event.
