EITI and Cancerbackup team up for the ATC

The Association of Translation Companies 2006 annual conference took place on Thursday, 21st September 2006 at the School of Oriental & African Studies, University of London.

Carolyn Burgess, EITI’s Chief Executive, teamed up with Rose Thompson, from Cancerbackup, for a presentation called: “The customer is King (or Queen)! The secret of developing successful client-translation provider relationships - from the customer and TC perspectives.”

EITI and Cancerbackup, Europe's leading cancer information charity, hit the headlines in 2003 when they launched the UK's first national multilingual helpline. The freephone service provides cancer information and support in 12 languages: Arabic, Bengali, Cantonese, French, Greek, Gujarati, Hindi, Polish, Punjabi, Turkish, Urdu and Vietnamese.

The Association of Translation Companies was formed in 1976 by a group of leading translation companies in Britain, making it one of the oldest organisations representing the interests of translation companies in the world.
