About Conferences

The Internationalization & Unicode Conferences are of particular value to anyone implementing the Unicode Standard or working on internationalization. A variety of tutorials and conference sessions cover current topics related to Unicode, the web, software and internationalization. Participants can learn about new developments and implementing Unicode.

Internationalization & Unicode Conferences are the ideal place to interact and exchange ideas with others in the field of internationalization, including experts, implementers, clients and vendors. The interactive format makes the Internationalization & Unicode Conferences a great place to meet leading experts, find out about the needs of potential clients, or find out what Unicode enabled products are available. Participants receive copies of the conference proceedings. Proceedings from past conferences are archived.
