Speakers: Diego Cresceri & Mihai Petrescu
Description
Machine Translation and post-editing have been on everybody’s lips for years now, but research shows that only a few LSPs have implemented a successful MT programme.
While sharing the challenges (and successes) they have encountered in their respective companies, Mihai and Diego will moderate a discussion on how to avoid common pitfalls related to technology, supply chain and much more.
