Theme: Know-how for Global Success

Know-how for Global Success proved to be such a fitting theme for our conferences in 2009 that we have decided to keep it as the overarching theme for 2010.

The theme recognizes the fact that localization is not an end in itself but just one critical step in a company’s progression from domestic to global enterprise. We are looking for presentations that will provide expertise and experiences from the whole spectrum of that challenging, fascinating journey.

Localization World Seattle 2010 will be offering five distinct tracks and an attractive preconference program:
 
• Global Business Best Practices: Experienced business people provide practical insights for companies that want to venture with confidence into new international markets.
• Localization Core Competencies: An introductory track for companies that need to localize, but are unsure where to start.
• Advanced Localization Management: This track, the heart of Localization World, continues to provide the latest information on trends, processes, technologies and influences that shape the world of localization.
• Managing Global Websites: Leading companies, each with an outstanding web presence, offer their expertise for launching and maintaining a worldwide web platform.
• Inside Track: Special format sessions for deepening an understanding of select topics and sessions that stimulate collaboration and community.
 
Within the context of the above tracks we are especially interested in receiving proposals that focus on one of the following areas:

• Financial Services
• Life Sciences
• Convergence of Content and Translation Management
 
The theme and above foci are not meant to restrict the content of the conference. We encourage presenters to submit proposals that fit with the general taxonomy of the Localization World conferences.
