???? Our Clients: The Real Superheroes

Back-to-work season is here, and we're hitting the ground running with our ultimate goal in mind: our clients' success. We may offer the language and content solutions, but clients are the ones making the magic happen.

Take Belimo, for instance. By centralizing their linguistic processes and suppliers, we increased transparency and efficiency in their translation projects, allowing them to accurately track costs and manage budgets. Most importantly, we aligned with Belimo’s ‘Quality First’ mentality by implementing in-country reviews and robust terminology management, ensuring consistent messaging and significantly improving translation quality. This approach turned Belimo’s brand promise into action, enhancing their global presence and customer trust. We're proud to be part of their success, and we're ready to help you create your own story.

???? From Belimo to Beauty Brands: Your Success is Our Mission

Just like Belimo, many other global brands have turned to us to unlock their full potential. We've helped them streamline processes, conquer new markets, and speak the language of their customers, no matter where they are.

We partnered with NUXE, a leading name in luxury cosmetics, to create a seamless translation experience that captured their unique brand voice in every language. By centralizing their translations and using expert beauty translators, we helped them maintain their luxurious appeal while speeding up their time to market and even trimming costs - making their global expansion as smooth as their skincare.

?? Leading on the Future of Enterprise Localization at SlatorCon

SlatorCon was a blast! This year’s event was a fantastic opportunity to connect with thought leaders and explore how AI is transforming the language services landscape.

As a Panel Partner, Acolad helped bring together an impressive lineup of speakers for a lively discussion on "Enterprise Growth in the Age of AI". Our very own Pavel Soukenik , Head of Global Solutions, joined experts Agustín Da Fieno Delucchi from Microsoft and Nitin Singhal from SnapLogic, to explore how AI is reshaping the future of localization and global services.

They covered the big questions: Should companies build their own language solutions or team up with experts? How do you make sure all your systems play nice together? And how can we use AI to make sure translations are top-notch, no matter the language?

Here's what we learned:

• Stay flexible: When it comes to language solutions, there's no one-size-fits-all. Find what works best for your company and be ready to adapt.
• Connect everything: Make sure your systems talk to each other smoothly, so your global teams can work together seamlessly.
• AI needs a human touch: AI is amazing, but it's important to keep checking that translations are accurate and culturally relevant.
