In this week's SlatorPod, Semantix Chief Business Officer Britta Aagaard joins us to talk about their recent major deal win — a EUR 34m translation contract for the EU GROW project. Britta discusses what's involved in bidding for, winning, and setting up to go live on a contract of this size, as well as the role of Semantix's technology partner ESTeam.Britta also talks about her path to joining Semantix, which resulted from the 2017 acquisition of Textminded, the translation company that she headed as CEO before its sale to public sector interpreting specialist Semantix. Four years later, Britta shares how learnings from the public sector carry over to servicing private sector customers, and how the acquisition of Textminded has seen Semantix expand its offering to become a bonafide full-service LSP. First up, Florian and Esther discuss dating website operator Match.com's acquisition of a multilingual video chat platform built on Google Translation API for a cool USD 1.73bn, while Microsoft rolled out ‘Document Translation' for LSPs and Enterprises. The two unpack the latest financial results from Australia-listed companies Ai-Media — a captioning and subtitling provider that delivered upwards of seven million minutes in the six months to December 31, 2020 — and Appen, whose shares tumbled despite 12% growth in 2020.
In SlatorPod #59, Limecraft CEO and Founder Maarten Verwaest joins us to talk about digital workflow management in the media sector and AI-enabled subtitling. Maarten shares his entrepreneurial journey, tells us why he doesn't plan to bring on financial investors, and explains why AI should not be left unattended. First up, Florian and Esther discuss the week's language industry news as they revisit the majority sale of UK-based translation management system (TMS) provider XTM. The two discuss an MT-related court case in Poland. Having taken their client to court over non-payment for a book translation, a Polish LSP soon found their practices under scrutiny by the court and expert witnesses. Esther talks about a major deal win for LSP Semantix and friends worth around USD 40m over four years. Semantix, Summa Linguae, and ESTeam partnered up to bid for an EU translation contract for the Commission's Directorate-General, and succeeded in ousting incumbent provider AMPLEXOR.Sticking with Europe's public sector, the two talk about the European Parliament's new remote interpretation platform. The roll-out of the selected platform, Interactio, involved a huge deployment effort and saw them tackle myriad challenges such as scale, funding, and firewalls. As remote interpreting went fully mainstream in 2020, UK-based LSP thebigword secured another three years of interpreting work from the Ministry of Justice (MoJ).

DLI has the unique mission to promote inclusive digital transformation by increasing participation of girls and women in ESTEAM studies, careers and leadership around the world. ESTEAM stands for Entrepreneurship, Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics. DLI is a dynamic and growing organization.

A few of the activities are: recognizing outstanding girls and women in digital studies and careers, promoting women-led digitally-driven startups, organizing learning events for school girls, and providing training and career placement for women with work experience.

It's part of her job to be out there beating the drum, to hopefully, eventually, impact people, make them aware, get them advocating, changing behavior, and bring about a social change.
