At the same time as our first project meeting, there was a workshop in València: La Indústria de la Traducció entre Llengües Romàniques (The industry of translation among romance languages) where MOLTO was present.

The EAMT 2010 took place in France last week and MOLTO was represented with a short talk and a poster (you can see both in the publications section).
