Das A und O der globalen App-Lokalisierung: ein exklusives Q&A mit Juan Gil, Head of Localization Solutions bei Unbabel

9. August 2022y

When a business seeks to achieve global expansion, devising a strategy to localize software/apps to appeal to local markets can be daunting. It can be especially difficult to pinpoint which languages to prioritize, technical challenges to be aware of, business units to involve, and tools to invest in.

As Head of Localization Solutions Architecture at Unbabel, Juan Gil understands this more than anyone, and has 20 years of experience in guiding businesses towards fully integrated, cost-efficient solutions to prove it.

He shared with us during this Q&A a range of considerations companies must take into account when bringing their apps to the global stage, which include:       

  • selecting the high-impact languages to maximize ROI;

  • bringing in the right stakeholders at the right time of the process;

  • understanding the impact on team resources: Development, tech, and design;

  • successfully delivering multilingual content across multiple channels at scale;

  • leveraging AI + automation to establish a continuous localization process.

Here’s what he had to say.
