Speakers:	Alexander Drechsel Alexander Drechsel is a conference interpreter with the European Commission's Directorate-General for Interpretation.

He shares what he knows with fellow interpreters in workshops, on Twitter (@tabterp), and on his website (www.tabletinterpreter.eu) where you can also download his comprehensive Tablet Interpreter Manual. Josh Goldsmith Josh Goldsmith is an EU accredited interpreter working from Spanish, French, Italian and Catalan into English.
