Let's talk about competition, coopetition, and innovation in language services with industry veteran, Michael Stevens.
At Translated, Michael Stevens is responsible for growth: finding interesting companies to work with and challenging many assumptions about localization in the process. As co-host of The Global podcast, he explores areas of the localization industry that spark his own curiosity and he then shares it with the industry at large. Over the years, Michael has studied languages, marketing and searched deeply to understand the mind of God. He has worked successfully with two major language service providers and also consulted in software development. Living in Seattle, Washington, Michael can be found with his wife and three daughters.
