I really like the event. We had the opportunity to learn some tips about how to develop our career and also ask and discuss about lots of different subjects.
A good mix that help us have a wide idea about the market and how to face it.

Thanks to all the participants!


- A very useful conference. It was my first experience with ProZ conferences and although I was unable to attend all of them the ones I saw prove my point. I hope you can repeat it more often. It was informative, encouraging and generous. Congratulations to the ProZ team. Thank you so much. Anita Di Marco, Brazil


Great conference, excellent presentations and quality subjects. Thank you four your effort.


Great event, interesting talks and useful information! Pity I couldn't attend more sessions but I will for sure watch them on the replay. Thank you!

Thank you for organizing such important virtual conference. It was very good and useful for me.
For the moment, I do not use CAT tools becuase I mainly work in interpreting. Some of the sessions were basic for me, others were very advanced. In general the conference recorded a success.
