Global Language Solutions Joins Globalization and Localization Association
NEWPORT BEACH, CA - April 22, 2008 - Translation and interpreting firm Global Language Solutions
® (GLS) announced today its membership in the Globalization and Localization Association (GALA), an international non-profit association that encourages local communication as an indispensable component to a global strategy.
GALA member companies are experts in language services and technologies. They deploy sophisticated and proven tools and processes to help global enterprises understand in-country issues, languages and needs. GLS is a full-service translation and interpreting company with more than 13 years of experience delivering language services and solutions to organizations around the globe. In addition to becoming a member of GALA, in 2008 the firm also achieved ISO 9001:2000 certification and added a new line of Regulatory Consulting Services for the pharmaceutical and medical device industries. These achievements come after a record year in 2007 when the firm realized a 75% increase in sales revenues. GLS, which specializes in key vertical industries, such as medical devices, pharmaceutical, legal, and advertising, attributes much of the growth in the translation and localization industry to the significant increase in organizations translating their websites, documents, and marketing materials to meet a multilingual U.S. domestic population, as well as potential customers, patients, or clients in other parts of the world.
“We are pleased to welcome Global Language Solutions into our association of active member companies,” said Kim Harris, GALA Board Chair and Co-owner and Managing Director. “We strive to provide our members with networking, educational, and promotional opportunities that help them grow their businesses and meet their independent company objectives.”
