Managing Localization
|
Effective Localization Project Handoff Management
|
| Presenter(s): |
Yusuke Kirimoto |
| Description: |
Balancing low cost, fast turnaround, and high quality output for localization is always a challenge, even more so in today’s economic climate. A well executed "handoff" is crucial to a successful localization project, both in quality and budget, and carries the same consequences as companies sprint to maintain global market leadership. With tool automation advancements such as Content Management Systems (CMS) and Globalization Management Systems (GMS), the localization industry is in a better place to achieve the ‘faster, better, cheaper’ goal, but it does come with some caveats. |

|
website Localization 101 – Why and How to Prepare your website for Global Markets
|
| Presenter(s): |
Heike Nock is the Marketing Manager at Across Systems. Liesl Leary is a Senior Localization Strategist at ENLASO. |
| Description: |
With its global reach and ubiquitous presence, localizing a website has become the first line of attack for companies seeking to expand their customer base. Yet despite this simple goal, many companies are challenged by how to begin and whether more expensive tools to manage the localization of websites are necessary. CMS’s, TMS’s, GMS’s can present benefits; however, they can also present challenges that neither simplify the localization process nor reduce costs if implemented incorrectly or unnecessarily. |

Social Networking and Online Dating Localization
|
Social Networking Localization
|
| Presenter(s): |
Liesl Leary |
| Description: |
With the proliferation of social networking sites recently, it seems that meeting people is as simple as a mouse-click. In fact, according to Hitwise, in September 2006, 1 in every 20 website visits were to social networking sites. However, localizing the sites that enable global end-users with similar interests but different cultures, languages, and input method editors to find each other, is irrefutably more complex. |

Terminology / Glossary / Style Guide / Translation Memory
|
Incorporating Multilingual Glossaries into Localization Systems
|
| Presenter(s): |
Liesl Leary |
| Description: |
Glossaries insure the health of your localization investment and prevent some nasty disorders from ever occurring, however many companies fail to understand the importance of a glossary to a localization project. Faced with the indecipherable complexity of a project's pricing matrix, the additional costs associated with creating a glossary may appear extraneous. But this misunderstood procedure is the cornerstone to achieving high-quality translations, lower long term costs, and faster time-to-market, while developing subsidiary buy-in, and in some cases, effective vendor management. |
