[End][Seminar] Reduce Translation Costs by 27%! Learn from Success Stories: Know-How Seminar on Implementing Machine Translation for Document Translation (Free, April 27)

*This seminar has ended.

Free Machine Translation Seminar on April 27, 2016 (Wednesday)

"Reduce translation costs by 27%! A seminar on the know-how of introducing machine translation for document translation, learning from successful cases" will be held.

Last September, we held a seminar with the same title, and we were able to welcome a full house of customers, receiving very positive feedback on the content.

 

* The content is the same for both dates. Please choose a date and time that is convenient for you.

 

<Previous Seminar Overview>

Machine Translation Seminar

 

In this seminar, we will explain how to build a workflow that can achieve cost reduction and shorten delivery times, based on the case studies of three companies that successfully implemented machine translation to reduce costs, while presenting actual figures.

Even if you are not very familiar with machine translation, we will explain the basic aspects of machine translation in the first half of the seminar, so please feel free to participate.

Feedback from Past Seminar Participants

    • - There were explanations of points and improvements tailored to individual cases, which made it very easy to understand.
      (OA equipment manufacturer - Document production in charge)
    • Combining translation memory and machine translation engines to leverage the benefits of both was insightful.
      (Research and Development Institution, Planning Department)
    • It was good to learn about the cost reduction rate when aiming for translation at the same level as humans through specific examples.
