As global marketplaces grow increasingly competitive and AI becomes more prominent, there is an extraordinary opportunity to drive value beyond words alone and realize our true potential as an industry. We need to evolve to focus on the outcomes that technology, language, and culture can enable. In this presentation, we’ll provide examples of how we have helped drive measurable improvements for our clients in the healthcare, insurance, and manufacturing industries using this three-pronged approach.

Software Localization Panel

In the e-whirlwind of the last couple of years, we’ve seen global content volumes skyrocket, global teams scattered to the far corners of the earth, and CEOs using terms like “massively multilingual” and, “AI driven global content strategy”.

In this panel, we’ll bring together loc managers from various industries to discuss how their role is evolving, what they are doing to stay ahead of the curve, and what they see on the horizon.
