Wordfast conference Jun 8, 2018

Hi Madleen,

I organize this one every year: https://wordfast.com/conference/2018
It is reputable and useful for Wordfast users.

Otherwise, have a look at Multilingual Magazine’s events calendar: https://multilingual.com/events/

Good luck!
John

Hi Madleen,

I just got back from the Wordfast Forward 2018 conference and I was browsing the forums to briefly comment about it.
It was very interesting, there were in-dephts presentations on relevant topics such as filtering segments, making custom filters to upload files, xml files discussion, in-depht on glossaries, TM editing etc. And off course live demonstration of new features.
Being around developpers to make suggestions and get informations was very useful.
And off-course the atmosphere was great! We even had the CEO entertaining us with his piano skills

Kudos to John because the organisation he made of the event was superb!

For those curious about the conference, I posted video-glimpse of what I experienced while being in there on my YouTube channel. You can watch it here:
