Local events hosted by NZSTI branches around the country and open to everyone
NZSTI has three local branches: Auckland, Wellington and Canterbury (Christchurch). These branches play a key role in serving our members in those areas by organising local in-person events throughout the year (presentations, social events, and more). These provide an opportunity for NZSTI members to come together, discuss industry-related issues and questions, and connect with colleagues.
While most branch events are for members only, the branches also organise events open to non-members, which offer a great opportunity for T&I professionals and students to discover NZSTI and meet others working in the industry.
You must be logged in to register for events and access discounted prices (if applicable). If you do not yet have an NZSTI account, please create one before registering, by following this helpful guide.

We’re excited to invite you to our upcoming Wellington branch meet-up in celebration of the International Translation Day, even though it’s not on the actual date! This event promises to be both insightful and enjoyable, featuring a captivating presentation by our very own NZSTI member, Fahim Afarinasadi.
Presentation highlight:
Inter in Iran: A dream that came true
Fahim will share insights from his pioneering PhD research, which developed a framework for football clubs to localise their online content for specific audiences, focusing on Inter Milan. With the arrival of an Iranian player at Inter Milan, this dream has come true. Fahim will discuss how the club has responded to its growing Persian-speaking fan base, examining the successes and missed opportunities in their recent localisation efforts.
Following the presentation, we’ll head over to Home Taste Restaurant and Bar (Chinese cuisine) for a relaxed dinner and drinks. The first drink is on us for all NZSTI members, so be sure to join us for a fun and engaging evening.
Event details:
Date: Thursday, 3 October 2024
Presentation venue: two/fiftyseven - Level 2, 57 Willis Street, Wellington
Dinner venue: Home Taste Restaurant and Bar - 160 Willis Street, Wellington (just a 5-minute walk)
This event is open to all Wellington branch members and we encourage you to bring along any colleagues and friends with an interest in translation and interpreting. We’d love to see as many of you as possible, so please come along and be part of this exciting gathering.
We look forward to seeing you there!
