Slator Buy-Side Report 2018: Actionable Insights From the Language Industry Buy-Side

End-buyers are the engine of the language industry. From e-commerce to gaming to pharma, language services are an integral part of the supply chain. Sometimes translation is seen as a cost factor. Increasingly, however, it is considered a revenue driver, a trend which is more pronounced in some pockets of the industry.

Over the past decade, many buyers have adopted a more mature approach to internationalization, localization, and translation. Increasingly, buyers are defining their localization needs based on the way they intend to use content, segmenting it into high-impact versus low-visibility content. Depending on the type of content, different quality thresholds are required, and different processes may be implemented.
