Press Release viaLanguage Expands Website Localization Services to Deliver Comprehensive, Cost-Effective Global Communications Solution Services Designed to Meet Rising Globalization Needs and Growing Hispanic Market in the United States Portland, Ore. - May 25, 2005 - viaLanguage, a preferred provider of global online translation and localization services, today announced the availability of expanded website localizations services. The services include advanced linguistic and cultural adaptation services, additional technical expertise and a superior content management solution that allows organizations to easily develop, update and maintain culturally-sensitive multilingual sites and other content. "Our expanded services are designed to help customers quickly and easily develop the very best multilingual websites and global communications in a cost efficient manner," said Chanin Ballance, CEO of viaLanguage. "Additionally, with our expanded group of international experts and our recent strategic relationship with content management provider Marqui, we now offer customers a more comprehensive solution." "A successful global communication plan demands accurate and culturally sensitive information," said Zach King, Senior Graphic and Web Designer, RadiSys Corporation (Nasdaq: RSYS). "viaLanguage meets these standards and allows us to effectively speak directly to our customers in countries such as Japan, China and Germany." The demand for website localization and global communication services is rising. Companies are expanding their internet communication strategy to include a global audience or are focused on reaching the growing non-English speaking communities in the United States. An IDC report forecasts that by the year 2007 over 1 billion people will have access to the Web, but less than 25 percent will live in the United States. Additionally, non-English speaking consumers drive nearly 70 percent of the world's economy today. "I'm seeing a clear trend in terms of companies investing greater resources into Web globalization as a competitive advantage," said John Yunker, chief analyst at Byte Level Research, a consultancy specializing in Web globalization strategies. "Companies increasingly view Web globalization not as a luxury, but as a necessity and as a way to communicate not only internationally but to the growing immigrant population here at home."
