(R)evolutions Unfolding: How Digital Acceleration is Impacting the Global Language Industry
It is indisputable that the global pandemic has accelerated digital transformation, setting off a “go digital or go dark” approach to business. From omnichannel commerce to digital content consumption, from remote learning and working to digital health solutions, nearly every industry has been impacted.
As an essential cog in the global business machine, the language industry is right in the middle of the transformation. At GALA Connected 2021, we will explore the impacts of the digital acceleration on the global language industry specifically, looking at it from several different angles based on the trends we have observed over the last year.
Tracks are designed to be inclusive and cross-functional. Please keep in mind our diverse audience which includes translation, localization, and interpreting professionals serving in a variety of roles and organizations.
