Back to the past and a glance to the future - Localization History from my perspective
Last Friday it was 25 years since I had my first job in the localization world.
It sounds cliché, but it doesn't stop being true, time doesn't pass, it flies!
In these days when I am constantly remembering everything that has happened in the localization industry, I thought that perhaps this week's post could be somewhat different, that is why I have created this infographic that represents from my perspective what has happened in the localization industry in recent years, and I also dare to take out my crystal balls and try to predict what may happen in the years to come.
This infographic is dedicated to all localization professionals that work in the globalization industry making localization a magical world, in which we can find the intersection of language, technology, and cultural intelligence.
See you!

Have a wonderful week!

Localization is all about adapting content from one culture to another, from one market to the next. The tricky part is the thin line separating appropriation and appreciation. The challenge is to adapt content respectfully and give proper credit. It's easy to blur the line between appreciation and appropriation. My post this week reflects on that.
