Out of the world’s 7.5 billion residents, only 20 percent or about 1.5 billion speak English. Companies can’t rely on machine translations to reach the other 80%.

That’s why content translators have emerged as key contributors to the global economy. Without their contributions, technology would be siloed by more than the type of device or service availability. As a result, the global market for outsourced language services and technology has understandably ballooned to more than $46 billion and goes far beyond selling apps or streaming services.
