In short, having their finger on the pulse, to provide a service, second to none.

TRANSLATION AND LOCALIZATION

Localizing your product for a global market is a complex and demanding process, requiring intimate knowledge and experience of every aspect of your target markets; culture, social and religious attitudes and prejudices, language and dialect issues, demographics, etc.. Aquent, with its global resource of local experts, is able to provide consistent, reliable and proven localization solutions for any project or product.

GLOBALIZATION

At Aquent we believe that globalization starts at the point at which a brand or product is set to emerge into the global market. The effective planning and implementation of that globalization process is vital in ensuring a maximum return on the investment is made.

To help achieve this Aquent focuses on the core areas of global brand expectations, global brand and product strategies, the establishment of global brand guidelines, together with analysis of existing marketing and materials for updating those guidelines. We then provide a full and comprehensive solution to successfully reaching a diverse global audience without compromise to the brand or product's strength.

TERMINOLOGY MANAGEMENT

Within any organization people have many different understandings, or preferred uses, of any particular word. This leads to a multitude of different terminologies being created, each trying to say the same thing!

Aquent's terminology management specialists will implement an internal set of processes where a preferred terminology usage is determined and maintained that can then be extended to all forms of communication. For this task we also maintain translation memory which is customized and ensures consistency when working on projects.

At Aquent we understand the importance of getting terminology right to ensure accurate and, more importantly, consistent delivery of information. With dedicated teams of people who understand core business objectives, Aquent offers consulting and customized solutions in the management and creation of terminology for any language.

CONTENT MANAGEMENT

Aquent takes an analytical approach, initially reviewing how content is created, localized, stored, managed, displayed, and the purpose which it serves. An extensive knowledge of languages, different cultures and trends are essential.

Understanding the perception of terminology within a target audience is key when it comes to getting the content right. To help achieve this, Aquent assists in creating content that reaches across all target audiences, eliminates inconsistencies and ensures that it is appropriate for your intended markets.

MARKETING AND DESIGN

Within the marketing and design sector Aquent is a household name when it comes to providing excellence. With over 80 offices globally, Aquent is your ideal partner when it comes to offering advice on the challenges and opportunities your brand or product will face through local or global expansion in any language.
