Why trust GALA?

We operate on a simple principle: to understand what’s really going on, ask the people that you are serving. Here's how we ensure that our research meets your needs:

• Surveys and reports are designed with input from members who are  subject matter experts
• Data is gathered from global industry professionals, then anonymized and analyzed by our data program manager and  a task force comprised of experts
• Results are segmented: by all responses, by language service companies, and enterprise responses

How do we share market research?

GALA's research is available for all members, for free, as part of your member benefits package.

Business Barometers

GALA's Business Barometers are in-depth reports based on our market research, conducted via surveys. Barometer reports are made for decision makers who want deeper insights to truly understand what's going on in the industry. 

Business Barometers explore three core areas based on member interest:

• Economic Indicators: a deep dive on business performance, financials, rates, and year-over-year market changes
• Technology: explores current trends and solutions, like AI, tech stacks, automation, efficiencies, ROI, and compliance
• People Operations: everything you need to know about hiring, training, and retaining talent, including compensation, benefits, and DEI efforts

Barometers are free and available for members in the Resource Center.
