Our translation industry market research offers the very latest industry and data analysis, providing language service providers and end-clients the confidence to make informed and time critical decisions. It is a cost-effective, credible resource for busy professionals.
Globally there are thousands and thousands of LSPs providing language, translation and localization services worldwide. The vast majority of these LSPs are small, local players with less than US 1 million dollars in annual revenue. However, there are now at least 50 LSPs with USD 8 million in revenue and eight Super Agencies exceeding USD 200 million.
As these LSPs look for growth, mergers and acquisitions are playing an important role in how these firms are growing. Larger LSPs are merging with smaller LSPs to be able to cover all the translation needs of the overseas growth of their customers.
If you’ve ever bought a product from a company based in another country that spoke a foreign language, you’ve encountered language localization.
Language localization is an industry that serves both governments and companies in providing accurate and culturally sensitive translations from one language to another. This industry has proven to be vital to a company’s ability to expand their products and services into foreign markets around the world.
Engaging the services of an LSP means trusting their ability to provide accurate and qualified translation and localization services. This means that buyers have to make informed decisions in which LSP to hire, one with a proven track record.
The Slator Language Service Provider Index (LSPI) tracks the world’s largest language service providers and features over 130 LSPs across the Super Agency, Leaders, Challengers, and Boutique categories. We also provide research reports that identify the leading LSPs across ten key industries to help corporate buyers make qualified decisions. Slator keeps our subscribers up to date on developments in the world of localization industry market research.
In addition to the annual Slator LSPI, we examine the key industry sectors, major corporate buyers and leading language technologies in an ongoing series of research reports that help your company make sense of the translation and localization industry.
We cover ten industry sectors including Media, Gaming, Life Sciences, Technology, Travel & Retail, Financial Services, Engineering & Manufacturing, Aerospace and Defense, Professional Services, and the Public Sector.
Slator also assembles actionable insights from dozens of language industry buy-side interviews, analyzes merger activity from over 60 M&A and Funding transactions, and compiled case studies on the deployment of neural machine translation technology.
