  1. XTRA Corporate Localization Strategy SeminarAugust 30, 2001Airport Conference Center Frankfurt Update Your Localization Strategy Now!

  2. Prevent the Nightmare As companies target foreign markets, they discover that local markets demand products that are localized. While many companies have long tolerated inefficient and costly localization efforts, this is likely to change. With the rapid increase of evolving markets, the number of languages to be managed concurrently is likely to become a nightmare for global companies.

  3. Why Is There a Need for a “Corporate” Strategy? Today, localization is often considered an afterthought and is often left up to local subsidiaries to take care of. Having no unified corporate approach leads to many inefficiencies and costly errors multiplying the overall cost of localization with every target language.

  4. Update Your Localization Strategy Is there a better, less costly and less time consuming way to produce high quality software for a global audience? There may be as many variations to facing this challenge as there are organizational structures. This must-attend seminar is about finding the best methods to fit your entire organizational strategy.

  5. Why Did XTRA Decide to Host this Seminar? When working with clients, we notice very often that there is an immense waste of time and resources due to lack of communication, planning errors, bad preparation or inefficient processes. The goal of our seminar is to answer the HOW‘s and WHY‘s of successful corporate localization strategies and processes.

  6. Who Should Attend? If your company develops software products for target users in multiple languages and can claim the following, you may be wasting your time at this seminar… • Simultaneous shipment of all language versions • No difficulties with corporate funding or reporting • Optimal balance of outsourced and in-house language support, translation tools, and terminology management • The perfect method for assuring quality

  7. How Do I Benefit from the Seminar? You will have the opportunity to examine the challenges associated with various localization models presented by representatives of successful global companies (see agenda). All participants will discuss the aspects of each model to share insight and promote new ideas.

  8. What Is the Style of the Seminar? The presentations of the seminar speakers will be highly valuable contributions. More importantly, we believe the discussions following the presentations will provide the greatest benefit to participants. We do not simply want to present “success stories”, rather we want participants to examine issues that hinder successful localization and work toward solutions.

  9. How Can the Seminar Help Improve My Company’s Localization Processes? The goal of the seminar is to help attendees improve localization in their companies by way of the following: • Reducing time-to-market • Increasing product quality • Reducing localization costs
