Event description: Discover the full potential of your terminology
For you as a localization professional, the need for terminology has always been clear. However, it is also clear that in order to truly work in a corporate setting, terminology is not an afterthought but has to be visible and managed company-wide. Fortunately, the advent of Generative AI and LLMs have made the challenges to operate without terminology much more apparent, even to non-linguists.
In this year´s TermClub Round Table we want to discuss the business model of terminology. How can we shift the notion of terminology away from single-purpose glossary management in localization to repurposable (“FAIR”) terminology data management which can serve many areas in a company? How can we make terminology attractive to other stakeholders and departments, particularly the AI team? And how can we stay relevant or even elevate our position as the “language experts”?
The format of a Round Table allows us to get different inputs from different people at different phases in the journey towards terminology. The goal is to establish some best practices, business cases guidelines, but also insights into how to “rethink” terminology on a corporate level.
Topics to be discussed:
- What are the benefits of terminology beyond glossaries for localization?
- Who in a company can we address as possible sponsors?
- How do we create a terminology business model?
- What do we need to consider in our terminology approach?
- In particular, how can we address our corporate AI team?
By joining this round table, you will:
- Get practical input into corporate terminology management
- Benefit from the experience of others in the same situation
- Start working on a first business model for your terminology
- Develop ideas how to make a real impact in your business
- Make sure you stay relevant as a corporate language expert
This round table is for:
- Language divisions who want to elevate their standing and drive business excellence through language
- Localization team members who see the potential of terminology but cannot get buy-in
- Terminology enthusiasts who want to have more impact in their company
- AI enthusiasts who have discovered the importance of terminology in their applications
- Language technology
Refreshments are included. Cost $350 USD
