SlatorCon Zurich is now SOLD OUT — See you on October 4th!
Belgium-based language service provider (LSP) Jonckers sells a majority stake to investment firm Mayfair Equity Partners after rapid organic growth, of more than 75%, in 2022.
While 2020 will go down in history as the year of Covid, it also saw six CEO appointments at language services and tech providers as well as several C-level and VP hires, as reported by Slator.
Silke Zschweigert assumes CEO role at Jonckers from July 2020; talks to Slator about company’s future and accelerating development of LSP’s proprietary TMS WordsOnline.
Zschweigert says the days of pipeline solutions to delivering language are over; and, in the next 10 years, machine translation and human-in-the-loop will still be components of workflows.
Jonckers unveiled its new WordsOnline platform last month in Seattle at Locworld 38 after a number of successful pilots with major clients.
Just over a year ago, Jonckers announced the launch of its unique Cloud based management platform WordsOnline. The concept evolved from working in partnership with eCommerce customers, processing over 30 million words each month.
Vistatec appoints a new COO, while Morningside hires a senior vice president for finance and director of product for legal. Jonckers and Xplanation welcome new business managers.
This roundup of language industry hires shows how people trained in other fields can slot into the industry. Filmmaking, law, and government are just some of the fields of study represented in this week’s batch of new appointees.
