Summary:

This was a successful event on many fronts. Not only did we have a good turn out from the Chinese T&I community there were also a couple of Turkish translators and interpreters. It was also good to see so many new members joining up, almost doubling our membership.

Three speakers at this event: Jingjing Lipski, Sarina Phan & Laurie Robson. All inspirational speakers, each provided their unique point of view and shared their experiences in the field of legal interpreting, or in Laurie’s case his experience of working with interpreters as a Barrister. Participation rate was very good thanks to the outstanding speakers, although due to time constraints some questions had to be cut short. Charles Qin was the MC.
