MLT attended LocWorld41

LocWorld41 with the theme of “Go Global, Be Global” was held on November 6-8, 2019 at Fairmont San Jose, Silicon Valley.

The conference covered different topic areas by various concurrent tracks including Content Management, “Go Global, Be Global”, Inside Track, TAUS, “What’s Next”, Keynote, Unconference, Global Business, Data, etc.

As an attendee, our takeaways from the conference were tremendous. Hereinafter are just a few:

1. Internationalization Practices across Different Sectors: Taking place during the product design and development phase, i18n is the first step to ensure efficient and scalable localization. We learned about how i18n requirements and practices differ across different sectors such as IT, electronics, and customer service; the guidance in i18n for large enterprises; and the best practices during the process of product and service internationalization.

2. Corporate Innovation: how start-ups can attract corporate partners and investors, the definition of innovation cluster, global technology trends, and venture capitalist’s specific interest towards promising industry and sectors. 

3. Content Strategy: Digital transformation ties to more sales, better service, improved customer experience, and personalization. But it does not happen until we dramatically adjust and improve our content. Repackaging the same old content with new tools is useless. Information shared during this session also included concrete steps for content preparation; the difference between content conversion, migration, and transformation; the pitfalls of content conversion and migration without content transformation, etc.

By introducing convenient Apps for networking, Q&A, and polls, all the sessions as well as networking events throughout the conference were well organized and particularly helpful to participants. We are very happy to have been a part of the conference and to have met other professionals from all sorts of industries. It was a great time for the exchange of information and thoughts in the language services and localization market.

The next event, LocWorld 42 (focusing on “Engage Global Users”), will take place in Berlin, on June 3 – 5, 2020.
