Join our webinar to explore the diverse subject areas within life sciences from a business perspective.
Life sciences is a vast domain with multiple subject areas. You cannot simply specialize in life sciences; you need to choose specific areas as your niche to thrive as a translator and interpreter. But what are these niches and who are the clients that inhabit them? How are clients adapting to current AI developments?
In this webinar, we’ll discuss the types of clients needing translation and interpreting services across different niches, comparing direct clients vs. agencies, small projects vs. large projects, and simple translation vs. a mix of services. We’ll delve into essential knowledge domains for specific areas and how to leverage intersecting domains to diversify with minimal additional investment. You’ll gain valuable insights into non-clinical and clinical trials, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and medical advertising to build your T&I business or career.
The future of AI in various fields will also be addressed, including how to leverage it for your benefit. We’ll guide you on choosing your specialization based on your tech affinity, whether you’re an AI enthusiast or prefer to steer clear of technology. Additionally, we’ll explore the challenges of finding credible resources in specific areas.
