Partner Summit 2018

The scenic Portuguese city of Vila Nova de Gaia, with its stunning location directly across the Douro river from Porto, will see JABA-Translations host its Partner Summit 2018 from June 20th to 22nd. The summit aims to bring JABA-Translations’ partners together again and foster closer collaboration by finding common ground and interests, and exploring these further.

JABA-Translations' experience and operational insight over the past few years have made us realize that investing in quality and constantly striving for technological solutions have been the key foundations for our success. We therefore believe that we are ideally qualified to host an event like this as we successfully did it before. Please accept our invitation to participate in a summit that will help you understand the importance of technology integration between clients’ and partners’ systems, in a relaxed and agreeable environment surrounded by translation industry colleagues and peers. In addition to invaluable discussion topics, you will have an opportunity to mingle and meet new business partners at the social events scheduled during the summit. We have set everything in motion to ensure this will be a memorable event. Make sure you don’t miss out on this opportunity!
Admission fee: €338.25

The 'real' size of translation market - Do we know?

Topics

About
Our expedition to the universe started from a brave guy who raised a question to the very basic knowledge for mankind - 'the earth is the center of the universe'. Later, another guy was influenced by this story and believed the world is not flat. And that guy found a 'new world'.

I would like to suggest a new expedition to 'our universe', the world of translation. Maybe document translation is just a small satellite that's spinning around a lot bigger body. The small stars we barely see may be 10 times bigger than the world we're living. Over the rainbow, there might be aliens, who has colonized 100 planets commuting on UFO's that's 100 times faster than our shiny supersonic jets.


Who knows one of us will find a new world hundreds of years later?

Title
Closing the increasing gap between humans and technology

Topics
Do what you're best at (always), Linear vs. exponential (does it ever end), Futile investments (think twice or thrice), Division of labor (knowledge amongst peers), Look at the bigger picture (not your belly button), The tool which will "kill" you (yes I'm talking about MS Word), Steep or long learning curves (maybe we should stop talking about this all together), The Swiss knife syndrome (leave that to the Swiss, the rest of u are but mere humans), Use Excel to prove it (that should create some stir), Why is it only marketing (they solved the riddle ages ago), The solution (because everyone expects there to be one).


About
The entire presentation focuses on the migration from one technology to another. What it takes of effort, should people do it themselves or should it be outsourced? I am setting up parameters which hopefully will lift eyebrows and be a bit provocative. My belief today is that people today are a bit oblivious as to how technical communication should actually be handled.

The Antidote to Commoditisation

Topics

About
Three things in live are certain; death, taxes and that your product will eventually be commoditised. In this brief talk I’ll explore what causes this and how B2B sales is used to position your company differently. I’ll introduce you to concepts such as value-in-use and key account management – the antidote to commoditisation.

Could you also provide SEO translations? Hell, no!

Topics

About
Do you also get requests to translate SEO-optimized content into several languages along with keyword lists? Do you feel it’s not the right thing to do, but you need a better understanding of the matter to be able to tell the customer what exactly went wrong?


Then this presentation is for you!

Jointly developing your translation system – the JABA kick-off

Topics
-
About
Translation processes are becoming more complex, more individual and cloud-based. To succeed, companies must be able to adjust, integrate and extend used software as if it were their own. Yet most companies cannot afford to build this on their own.

The approach of translate5 is to solve this challenge in a collaborative manner and on base of Open Source: A community of companies fuels the development with resources and ideas.

Translate5 exists as a proofreading system since 2012, but the initiative to widen the community approach AND build a cloud-based translation system based on translate5, OpenTM2 and other systems kicked off at the JABA Partner Summit 2015, including the idea of a crowdfunding.

The presentation will show, how the crowdfunding went and what the current status of the system is and how it can be integrated, extended and used.

And lastly it will show, how actual development, support and roadmap creation are working and how this might further develop in the future – and discuss this with the audience.
