FITCongress2017 app for iPhone and iPad

AUSIT, the Australian Institute for Interpreters and Translators is proud to host the flagship event of the International Federation of Translators (Fédération Internationale des Traducteurs, FIT), the XXI FIT World Congress, to be held from 3-5 August 2017, in Brisbane, Australia.

As a profession caught in the crosswinds of global change, it seems fitting that the Congress theme is

DISRUPTION AND DIVERSIFICATION

We, and our sign language colleagues at ASLIA, invite you to a three-day program packed with plenary sessions, workshops, presentations, panel debate and networking opportunities exploring the theme through the ten simultaneous conference streams.

FIT2017 has something to whet the appetite of every interpreter, translator & terminologist. Connect with colleagues, LSPs, industry stakeholders including government, end-clients, academics and students. The Congress is open to all, members and non-members alike. All you need is an open mind, endless curiosity and a willingness to grow. Those who stand still in a turning world, move backwards. So step forward and connect with like-minds from across the globe.

The FIT2017 Organising Committee warmly welcomes you to our beautiful, subtropical city, and look forward to being your hosts.
