RID turned 60, and we are so excited to celebrate this milestone with all of you at the Anniversary Gala!
We invite you to join over 1,000 leaders, professionals, and influencers in the interpreting and language access fields in the exhibit hall where you will be able to network with like-minded individuals and companies in the industry. Our exhibit hall hours will be posted with the agenda, along with unique experiences that coincide inside the hall during the show hours.
The En Avant Sessions is a new launch, a morning cafe featuring presentations followed by facilitated roundtable discussions to promote deeper engagement. With daily presentations on various hot topics featuring leading experts in the profession, roundtable discussions will offer opportunities for attendees to discuss challenges, gain new knowledge, and share success stories.
