Translation research, teaching, and industry are constantly evolving and mutually impacting each other. They require translation scholars, instructors, and translators to reconsider where they can be taken to for the creation of maximum research momentum, and an increase in the pedagogical benefit and business profit. Now, we are driven to rediscover, redefine and reassess the multi-faceted developments of translation. We hope to garner, through this symposium platform, different ideas on the role of translation in the context of global communication, the multiple functions of translation technology, the impact of translation on the evolution of human history, the integration of translation and multiculturalism, and other relevant topics that deserve public sharing and discussion.
