Pangeanic welcomes Sony Europe Localization Director

While we were attending the last EAMT Conference (see dedicated post in our News), Pangeanic also welcomed Sony Professional Europe Localization Director, Salomé López-Lavado. Pangeanic has been a realiable language vendor and technology consultant for several years.

The visit highlighted and strengthened our relationship even further by focusing on the expansion and deployment of our PangeaMT customized MT solution for Sony Europe in several languages and exploring the integration of our technologies in tailor-made, corporate globalization management environments.

Pangeanic, first LSP to create SMT division deploying TDA data, TAUS Data Association partner highlights

TAUS Data Association (TDA) highlights in a new online report the fact that Pangeanic is a first example of a LSP company that, making extensive use* of TDA data, has succeeded in creating a new Statistical Machine Translation division, PangeaMT. In so doing, Pangeanic then evolves from being a well-established language service provider to becoming an innovative language technology solution provider that supports and benefits from globalization industry data-geared initiatives, such as TAUS´s TDA.

PangeaMT provides industry specific statistical machine translation (SMT) engines for automotive, consumer electronics, and industrial sectors. The service was launched in 2009 at a recent TAUS User Conference with an offer to train engines for free for companies seriously looking into deploying open source MT with a TMX workflow. If you would like to know more about PangeaMT´s current Spring campaign, please contact us.

Pangeanic CEO to speak in Localization World 2010

Mr M Herranz, Pangeanic’s CEO, will take part in the MT in the Real World discussion panel within the Localization World 2010 conference in Berlin on Wed, 9th June. As highlighted by its title, this session focuses on authentic MT implementations and practices, moving away from mere sales talk to comprobable facts and informative experiences. From our own standpoint, Manuel will stress what it takes to make PangeaMT system implementation sucessful. Discussion across the panelist team, made up of MT buyers and providers, as well as with the audience, is meant to be highly interactive, providing a practical insight on current projects and results and outlining ongoing work and future challenges.
