ITC and GALA to host International Pavilion again in 2008!
For the second year in a row, the International Technical Communication (ITC) SIG and the Global and Localization Association (GALA) have partnered to present the International Pavilion at The Society for Technical Communication conference, held this year in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA from June 1-4, 2008. With the International Pavilion, we have a great opportunity to educate and build awareness about international technical communication, globalization, localization, and translation.
The International Pavilion is hosted by partners ITC and GALA with support from STC. This year, we have a prominent 20 x 20 exhibit space in the front Exhibit Area which will once again be a gathering place for all conference attendees interested in international issues while providing cultural and industry educational presentations. It will also be home base for the Passport to International Technical Communication activity, which is designed to foster interaction between conference attendees and our sponsors while highlighting international technical communication topics.
The prize this year to one lucky conference participant is a $500 airline voucher!
To become a sponsor, please see the attached form. There are two levels of sponsorship: $500 Diamond Level and the $250 Ruby level.
As well, we will need volunteers to staff the booth AND to speak at the International Pavilion. If you are interested, please contact Traci Nathans-Kelly, the ITC SIG Manager at kelly@epd.engr.wisc.edu .
