SIMULTANEOUS TRANSLATION

All sessions are held in English or Italian, depending on session speaker composition. For selected sessions English-Italian simultaneous translation is provided free to attendees.

JOURNALISMFEST APP

We have a smartphone app you can consult whenever you need information about ongoing sessions, about how to find a given venue, or about #ijf19 speakers. You will be able to access all speaker profiles and the sessions that each speaker will be involved in. In the Map section you can discover where you are in order to choose which session is most interesting and easy to reach depending on your position. A Personal Area will allow you to create your Wish List and be notified before the session you have selected begins.
