The move to Agile software development practices has been particularly challenging for both internationalization and localization activities. When globalization objectives need to fit in three-week sprints, a lack of understanding and coordination among various company stakeholders can exacerbate problems and increase costs.

In this webinar recording, Yuka Kurihara, Director of Localization at Pitney Bowes, joins Adam Asnes and Olivier Libouban of Lingoport, and Adam Blau of Milengo to highlight strategies and examples for effectively implementing software globalization efforts within Agile.

Yuka will demonstrate and discuss her efforts managing localization at Pitney Bowes, while working with her company’s Agile initiatives. The presenters will also discuss and showcase how to implement internationalization efforts in parallel with Agile feature development, and successful localization strategies paired with Agile teams.

Good, quick, cheap – pick any two. Localization project managers will tell you this project triangle is the way it has to be. We posted this question on several LinkedIn groups in order to hear the opinions and insights of a wide variety of fellow industry professionals (customer and vendor-side) and, oh boy, it seems like everyone has a strong opinion on this topic.

The discussion on LinkedIn inspired us to take this discussion to a different level and actually have industry experts talk about it in a virtual roundtable.

The goal of this virtual roundtable is to stimulate debate, learn about our challenges, discuss potential solutions, etc. and see if we can come away with new ideas that will help us cope with the “Fast, Cheap, and Good Quality” triangle.

Internationalization and localization for medical products tends to have special case business drivers and can take on life-and-death importance. First, there’s adapting products for better worldwide sales, but often issues like reducing liabilities and saving lives drive the process just a bit differently.

In this one-hour webinar recording, Adam Asnes, CEO of Lingoport, and Jason Heaton, Marketing Manager at Foreign Exchange Translations, discuss basic principles and processes that make medical products different.

There is tremendous value in knowing if a product is global-ready as part of your development cycle. Large amounts of development, marketing and branding dollars are at stake. Yet often, the only way software gets verified for localization, is during the localization process itself, or based on a limited series of manual interface testing. That’s way too late in the development cycle to be efficient and a very incomplete way to address the issue.

There are all kinds of products to support issues like software security and efficiency, but how about checking on internationalization, which for many companies is a hefty and vital product requirement for a good share of company revenue?

In this webinar recording, we’ll be demonstrating how Globalyzer 3.4 (our new release) finds, categorizes, tracks and helps fix internationalization bugs in source code using static analysis.

The webinar recording features special guest Michael Kuperstein, Localization Engineer, Global Language Solutions, at Intel. Michael’s responsibilities at Intel include tools development and internationalization consulting for product development teams; he has lead Globalyzer implementation at Intel.

The Localization Technology Round Table brings together five industry leaders to present an open technology framework that speeds up time to market and drastically reduces your localization and translation costs.

Together, Lingoport, Acrolinx, Clay Tablet, Milengo and Asia Online will show how advanced, modular localization technology addresses the challenges faced when launching products or services to international markets in multiple languages.

You’ll learn the key considerations when taking an international product from design to launch through, Internationalization, Information Authoring, Content Management, Localization and Translation Automation.

And you’ll learn how this is achievable quickly, and with fewer resources, while maintaining a consistent brand and user experience that builds value, saves time and reduces costs.

It’s not uncommon for software companies to be realizing 40, 50 or even over 60% of their sales from markets outside their home country. Yet engineering and localizing software releases often remains a “tail end” process, with all kinds of clean up, delays and costs. When combined with an agile cycle of rapid releases, keeping code internationalized and well documented can be even more of a challenge.

Watch this webinar recording on internationalizing and documenting code in an agile environment as special guest Mike McKenna, Globalization Manager at Yahoo, shares his experiences with Agile development.

It can be daunting to figure out how to best approach and perform an internationalization effort on a large source code base. Do it poorly and you’re stuck in an expensive cycle of delays and sub-par localization results. Consequently, you may also delay or miss out on budgeted revenue from foreign target markets.

As part of this webinar recording, Lingoport President and CEO Adam Asnes will use an open source code base as an example, and evaluate the programmatic elements of the application that are affected by locale requirements. Adam will comb through the code using Globalyzer, Lingoport’s software internationalization tool, to find and externalize internationalization issues.

Internationalization release requirements can fall significantly behind new functionality and localization entropy ensues. Agile release schedules put more emphasis than ever on building i18n into coding practices. At the [...]
