This deliverable falls within the Task T8.1: Dissemination plan and activities and outlines the first version of the dissemination and exploitation plan to be followed by the PRESEMT consortium within the project lifecycle.
On the basis of this plan all consortium members will be given the opportunity to make their work known to the research community. Furthermore, they aim at disseminating the project outcomes and results to the widest possible audience while at the same time hoping to promote research and development within the field of machine translation.

The dissemination strategy of PRESEMT will be explored along the following axes:

1. Dissemination channels, which mainly entail the following:
    * Presentation and promotion of the project over the web
    * Compilation of informative & promotion material (leaflet, newsletter)
    * Presentation and promotion of the project through social media
    * Presentation and promotion of the project through mass media
    * Publication in scientific journals
    * Teaching material

2. Dissemination events, mainly involving the following:
    * Presentation of the project results to conferences, workshops or relevant events
    * Organisation of a PRESEMT-related workshop
    * Organisation of lectures on the project and its research outcomes

3. Open-access approaches, giving rise to the following:
    * Public release of the system prototype for use over the internet
    * Public release of the system prototype for download to the users’ computers
    * Availability of various resources created during the project
    * Cultivation of cooperation with thematically similar projects and/or projects funded under the same objective
