XTRF and the Monterey Institute of International Studies (US) Announce a Partnership

On August 25, The Monterey Institute of International Studies will integrate XTRF – one of the leading ERP systems on the localization market – into the course Localization Project Management. This course is part of the Translation and Localization Management (TLM) program at MIIS. With the addition of XTRF, students will be on the cutting edge of learning how complex localization projects are managed. The course program targets students who are seeking to build the practical skills that are required on today’s localization market.
The TLM program was created to respond to the language industry’s growing demand for highly-skilled and professionally-trained localization employees. When it comes to project management in TLM, students will learn how to manage localization projects using XTRF-type systems, use collaboration tools such as vendor portals and learn more about localization challenges and emerging trends. The use of actual systems such as XTRF, memoQ, or Memsource will provide “real-world” context to the course. Incoming first-year translation and TLM students who sign up for the course will experience the addition of XTRF this fall. The course runs from August 25 to December 12, 2014. Read More...

XTRF Scores a European Union Grant

It has only been a few months since XTRF has gained the first round of funding from the Experior Venture investment fund, and we have already scored another grant: a European Union project worth over $1 million. The project titled "Continuity of the processes and data security in a translation management system" is financed from the EU Innovative Economy Operational Programme.
The project known as xContinuo is funded from the Innovative Economy program priority: Research and Development of Modern Technology and is expected to end in September 2015. The purpose of the project is to develop technologies that will ensure operation continuity, extreme data security and seamless experience for TMS class systems. XTRF™ - a multi-layered, enterprise-class system - will be adapted to operate in a highly distributed architecture model for cloud computing and collaboration with the so- called Intercloud. To convert this into non-geek language: the goal of the project is to improve the level of experience for the end-users of the TM system. Read More...
