Translators
Translations are an essential part of the international trade in book rights. Without translators there would be no world literature nor, in fact, would there be any international book fairs.
The Frankfurt Book Fair offers you an ideal platform for networking both at the Translators Centre at the Fair as well as in the Frankfurt Who’s Who, the largest directory of names in the publishing and media business.
Translators Centre
The Translators Centre of the Frankfurt Book Fair is a platform for translators and interpreters to present their services, network and get informed. Professionals and interested visitors are welcome to participate in the approx. 40 events which take place at the Centre: discussions between translators and their authors, professional talks, lectures, readings and award ceremonies. Translator scholarships are presented as well as translation grant programmes for publishers.
Who’s Who
As a translator, make sure to profit from the Frankfurt Book Fair’s online catalogue of professionals. Registration is easy: simply click the link “Registration” at the top of the left navigation bar. After setting up your individual translator profile, including details like language combinations and subject areas, it will be easy for potential clients to find you all year round.
