The conference will be held partially virtually. For those who cannot make it to Kent/Ohio - for Corona, Visa or other reasons - it will be possible to connect remotely to plenary talks and poster presentations. Poster presenters will be provided with a virtual space to present and discuss their posters with other participants.

How can and do humans cope with developing machine intelligence and how can machines adapt to the human condition? What is the effect of technology on the translation process, performance, job satisfaction, the product and society? We have invited several renowned speakers who know all the answers to these questions, and much more, and we invite delegates to submit posters and abstracts that contribute to this discussion. *INVITED SPEAKERS:* Gregory Shreve Kent State University Arndt Jakobsen Copenhagen Business School James Underhill Rouen University Maeve Olohan University of Manchester Mirko Plitt Translators without Borders Natasha Tokowicz University of Pittsburgh Alon Lavie Unbabel, Inc.
