Thankfully, with the help of the industry specialists that write for us and speak to us, we’ve been able to shed light on these developments and reach out to more people than ever before. Trans.INFO’s readership has grown to an all time yearly high, while our English-language service for readers across the globe has skyrocketed by over 50% year-on-year.
