I am happy to see such a wonderful organization that figured out the secret to getting people together in the right spirit and continues to instill the value of sharing.

David Sommer

Net–Translators

We have been coming to and sponsoring LocWorld events for years now, LocWorld being the premier industry event really allows us to not only see our customers and colleagues, but make new friends and contacts. The amount of industry knowledge under one roof is invaluable and helps us in planning for our future.

Libor Safar

Digital Marketing Director, RWS Moravia

We haven’t missed a single LocWorld event, as attendees or exhibitors, since the first conference in Seattle in 2003. These events have become the mainstay of our localization industry conference presence. They are always an excellent opportunity to learn, network and meet hundreds of contacts – old or new.

Martyna Wojtaś

Localization Manager, GetResponse

Fantastic! The presentations were very good (interesting, presented in a professional way, contained substantial information and were inspiring at the same time). The site was comfortable, exhibits interesting and the food was marvelous.

Lynn Hattery-Beyer

VP, Client Services and Development, OmniLingua Worldwide, LLC

LocWorld is a great opportunity to benchmark localization trends and best practices!!

Max Troyer

Translation Consultant. Associate Professor of Translation & Localization Management

The quality of the exhibitors was great - so many areas represented.

Gary Lefman

Internationalization Architect, Cisco Systems, Inc.

This was a particularly good conference. There was an all-round positive vibe and it was possible to detect a clear shift toward localization as a driver of global growth, rather than the usual afterthought. The venue, as always, was perfect for a conference of this size.

Jenn Vitello

Content Manager, Godfrey

It was so interesting meeting people from all over the world and talking about how we could potentially work together.

Shamus Dermody

Sales Director, XTM International

LocWorld is definitely the leading conference to discuss the latest innovations in this sector. Attendance is obligatory for those striving to create best of breed language management process's in globally competing organizations.

Sandor Papp

memoQ

Large industry conferences are mostly just about business. LocWorld is not. It is a highly professional event where you can get information on latest developments, meet industry thought leaders, network with friends, peers and new people from all over the world in an informal environment. memoQ has marked upcoming LocWorld conferences into its calendar for the next 20 years already.

Sara Maria Hasbun

Managing Director, Meridian Linguistics

I was certainly expecting to learn a lot about localization at LocWorld, and to connect with potential partners, and the conference definitely delivered on this front. What I wasn't expecting was such an immediate positive impact on our bottom line! New business inquiries started the Monday after the conference and by Wednesday we had landed our largest contract to date.

Kathleen Bostick

VP Language Solutions, North America at SDL International

LocWorld is by far the leading industry event. It always provides us with opportunities to engage with thought leaders in the industry and develop new business partnerships.
