The beginning of autumn this year in Tomsk was remarkable, and not only due to the beginning of a new academic year. From September 4-6, the Summit of Asian Cities was held in our city, during which the heads of Asian megalopolises gathered on Tomsk soil. 
Dear colleagues, The Lingvista team sends you the warmest greetings on the International Translation Day!
It is a well-known fact that effective and continuous communication is the foundation of business development. From time to time, to stay in touch with foreign partners, one must hold meetings and negotiations in person. For instance, numerous foreign companies are increasingly building connections on the Russian market. 
Football is loved by millions of people all over the globe, and the football-oriented TV show FIFA Futbol Mundial continues to introduce its viewers to world famous football clubs, coaches, players, and fans in different countries. 
For more than a year our company has been a member of the European Language Industry Association (ELIA). Twice a year the association holds a conference called “Networking Days” in different countries. This year Lingvista participated in the conference, which took place in the sunny country of Malta from October 3rd to October 5th. As always, we were greeted with a cozy atmosphere, useful sessions, as well as interesting people, ideas, plans and perspectives. 
Russia and Japan are hundreds of kilometers apart, but for a truly motivated person, there are no obstacles. 
Summer is the best time to set out on your next travel. Our beloved city is becoming an ever more popular destination for foreign guests exploring the Trans-Siberian Railway and adjacent cities with zest. 
Recently we celebrated International Children’s Day and while wishing the kids around us a happy Children’s Day we recalled that childhood is a period of paramount importance in every person’s life. A fairy-tale unveils a whole world of kindness and adventures for a small individual. 
Children are our everything, and every child must have happy childhood. Unfortunately, the childhood of some children can hardly be called happy. These are orphans and children from vulnerable families, who face numerous difficulties from the earliest life stages.
Happy New Year!
