Translation memory (TM) technology is a widely accepted facet of the translation industry today. In its early stages, translation buyers were often co-beneficiaries of the TM savings. Today, they have taken a far more proactive approach by controlling the TM data and its use. With growing amounts of data and a new sophistication in the employment of technology, translation processes are increasingly streamlined, with a resulting rise in both quality and cost-efficiency.
The next logical step, use of industry-wide data pools or the trading of TM data, has typically been dismissed as undoable. TM data is often viewed as a proprietary asset that can be neither shared nor traded. This conference will outline how TM data can be shared safely and successfully, why these concepts will take hold in the mid-term future, and the effect this may have on the language industry.
