Language Service Providers

With the ever-increasing pressure of an impending product launch date, it is quite frequent for clients and language partners to get caught up in day-to-day activities. The focus is on the deliverables, naturally. The important factors that help make a healthy client-vendor partnership get less attention.

In this webinar co-hosted by Nimdzi and Xillio, we look at technology around localization and connectivity.

Continuous growth and fragmentation have been the key characteristics of the language services market. Let's see what the data says.

Last week we spoke about the importance of managing terminology company-wide. Once this challenge is accepted, an organization or team needs to establish some terminology management metrics.

It’s early 2020 and by now it’s not exactly news when you hear someone declaring China as a land of opportunity. Most macro- and micro-economic indicators put the country at the top (or close to the top) of any list of the most dynamic economies of the world.

The estimated revenue of the commercial Terminology Management Systems exceeds USD 30 million per year. Why are such huge amounts of money invested in terminology management?

It’s time to clarify something: Language service providers (LSPs) do not provide translation. They provide vendor management, project management, and sales. This may come as a shock to you. You may then ask why one would hire a language services company to provide translations if that is not even their core competency?

74.2 percent of buyer-side respondents to Nimdzi’s recent survey on the state of NMT replied they have not been working with their partner LSP on piloting the technology for them.
