TransPerfect Selected as Sole Provider of Language Services and Technology to Create and Manage Multilingual Content
LONDON, June 14, 2012 -- TransPerfect, the world’s largest privately held provider of language services and translation-related technologies, today announced a new relationship with easyJet, a leading European airline. The multi-year agreement includes language services as well as TransPerfect’s GlobalLink technology to help broaden easyJet’s customer-facing presence throughout Europe.
easyJet’s strategy involves providing multilingual materials in several categories of content, including website copy, branding and marketing material, and human resources documents. Projects range from language-specific search engine optimisation (SEO) to translation of in-flight magazines to crew proficiency tests.
With deadlines that are frequently tight, easyJet relies on TransPerfect’s GlobalLink technology to streamline the localisation and translation workflow and ensure a unified brand voice in Spanish, Catalan, Czech, Danish, German, Dutch, Greek, French, Italian, English (UK), Hungarian, Polish, Portuguese and Turkish. This ensures that the 55 million passengers who fly easyJet each year across 110+ destinations continue to view easyJet as a service-oriented organisation that cares about customers’ individual needs.
“Our industry moves quickly, so precise and timely communication for all our passengers and team members is essential,” said Peter Duffy, Marketing Director of easyJet. “TransPerfect’s services and technology solutions help us better connect with our European clientele by communicating with them in their preferred languages.”
Liz Elting, co-CEO of TransPerfect, added, “easyJet has grown into one of Europe’s leading airlines by instilling trust in its customer base. We’re glad to be a part of their multilingual strategy, and we’re looking forward to what the future holds for easyJet’s continued global growth.”
