ANETI

What ANETI does

ANETI (Asociación Nacional de Empresas de Traducción e Interpretación) is a Spanish non-profit trade association founded in 2006 and headquartered at Via Laietana 71, Barcelona. It serves as the principal national business association for the language services industry in Spain, representing more than 60 translation and interpretation companies distributed across Spanish territory. Its core mission is to promote quality, professionalization, and internationalization of the sector; defend the industry's interests; and combat unqualified practice ("intrusismo") in language services. ANETI does not develop or sell technology products — it operates as a membership and standards body, not a SaaS or product company.

The association generates revenue through two primary streams: recurring annual membership dues from its 60+ member companies, and training and event fees from courses, webinars, the annual congress (V Congreso 2025), and networking events (IV Networking 2026). Training pricing is differentiated by audience — 48 EUR + VAT for ANETI member companies, 63 EUR + VAT for members of partner associations (AASL, AICE, ATC, ELIA, JUNTOS, LANGUNE), and 70 EUR + VAT for non-member companies and freelance professionals. Recent training additions, such as the July 2026 course on prompt design, evaluation, and optimization for language models, show deliberate expansion of the catalog toward AI-era competencies.

ANETI's strategic positioning is anchored by its May 2026 ratification as a corporate member of UNE (Asociación Española de Normalización), through which it contributes accredited experts to CTN-UNE 174 (Translation Services), CTN-UNE 191/GT 1 (Plain Language), and CTN-UNE 71/SC 42 (AI and Big Data). This gives the association formal influence over the ISO/TC 37-aligned standards that govern quality and compliance in Spanish language services. The association is led by President Arancha Caballero, is independently governed by its member companies with no parent company or external investors, and is supported operationally by a small Barcelona-based team.
