In case you didn’t hear about it yet… International Translation Day 2026 is really close!

This year’s theme is Future in Focus, and instead of asking “oh no, is AI going to destroy the industry?” we’ll be putting the focus somewhere else...What's your plan?

This year's theme comes with the idea of exploring the different pathways running through the future of the language profession, whether the choice is to remain within the industry and continue adapting, or transition out of it (or a hybrid of both?).

Some of the sessions you’ll find include:

🤖 Megatrends shaping the future of language professionals – Eva Stiekema
💡 The new normal: Building resilience and professional identity in an AI‑disrupted career – Abby Frackenpohl
🧠 The translator’s brain: Neuroplasticity, reinvention and the future – Ágata Catarina Ferreira Castro
🎓 Teaching future translators in an AI‑first world – Yelena Proskurin
🌍 Translator 5.0: From language expert to meaning architect – Monika Porwoł
🗣️ Panel: Innovating in the new language professional role with human judgement – Joachim Lépine, Andy Benzo & Diego Cresceri
🔍 AI and the changing landscape of linguistic validation – Doraid Matani
