Membership Program

Membership is available to all stakeholders in the global translation industry. Members who introduce new members benefit from discounts on the annual contribution fees.

Guidance on membership categories

Special members are likely to be large buyers and providers and will want to guide the TAUS Data Association growth strategy. Regular members are likely to generate or spend below one million US dollars/Euros each year from/on translation.

Associate membership is an entry level category enabling companies to cost effectively test the return on investment scenarios. Professional membership is for individual consultants or practitioners. Academic membership is for universities and associated research institutes.

To see how the system works, sign up for one of our regular webinars.
