October 8, 2024, Budapest, HU – memoQ Ltd., a leading translation technology provider, has acquired Globalese GmbH, the developer of a powerful platform for training AI-powered, custom neural machine translation models. With this acquisition, memoQ expands its enterprise translation management solution to include cloud-based and on-premises training and deployment of machine translation.

2024年10月8日，匈牙利布达佩斯一家全球领先的翻译技术供应商memoQ宣布收购 Globalese GmbH—一家专注开发和训练以人工智能为驱动，客户定制的神经机器翻译模型的公司。通过此次收购，memoQ 扩展了其企业翻译管理解决方案，新增了基于云端和本地化的机器翻译训练与部署。

The Globalese technology complements memoQ’s leading translation management system (TMS). It simplifies the customer journey toward enterprise translation efficiency by creating a complete and secure translation platform from one trusted technology partner. The product will be branded as globalese by memoQ, reflecting the seamless integration and combined strength of both technologies.

Globalese技术是对memoQ先进翻译管理系统（TMS)的优势互补。通过与这一技术信赖合作伙伴携手，memoQ创建了一个完整、安全的翻译平台，简化了客户提高企业翻译效率的过程。memoQ将该产品命名为“globalese”，体现了这两项技术的无缝集成与合力优势。

“Globalese and memoQ share a passion for creating real customer value through innovation,” says memoQ CEO Peter Reynolds. “Our customers have been asking how we can harness Generative AI to improve the quality of their translations and the speed with which they bring products and services to global markets. We introduced memoQ AGT (Adaptive Generative Translation) last year, but this was only an initial response. The acquisition of Globalese provides a much deeper answer. We are particularly excited by their AI-powered Domain Adapted models and the ability for customers to train and host an MT model on-premises. The Globalese team is incredibly talented and knowledgeable, and we are looking forward to building the next generation of translation technology with them.”

“Globalese和memoQ都怀有同样的热情，即通过创新为客户创造真正的价值，”memoQ首席执行官Peter Reynolds说道，“我们的客户一直在探索如何利用生成式人工智能来提高翻译质量，以及加快产品和服务在全球市场的推广速度。我们去年推出了 memoQ AGT（自适应生成翻译），但这只是一个初步的尝试。收购Globalese为这一问题提供了更为深入的解决方案。我们尤为兴奋的是他们的AI驱动领域自适应模型。此外，客户还可以在本地训练和部署机器翻译模型。Globalese 团队才华横溢、知识渊博，我们期待着与他们共同开创下一代翻译技术的新篇章。

“We have been telling language technology providers that it is imperative that they deliver a full range of AI services to meet the increasing diversity of enterprise requirements for global and multilingual content. The merger of memoQ and Globalese will enable the combined company to respond more effectively to these needs." adds Alison Toon of CSA Research.

我们一直在向语言技术提供商强调，必须提供全面的人工智能服务，以满足企业对全球化和多语言内容日益多样化的需求。来自CSA研究机构的Alison Toon补充道，“memoQ与Globalese的合并将帮助合并后的公司更高效地应对这些需求”。

Similarly to the memoQ product portfolio, the Globalese MT and AI platform is designed with user-friendliness in mind, making the process of training machine translation models as simple and intuitive as possible. For everyone from seasoned NLP engineers to newcomers in the translation and localization space, the Globalese platform is easy to use and navigate. Globalese provides connectivity with popular translation management systems through plug-ins, as well as API access to full MT functionality for easy integration into existing translation workflows.

与memoQ的产品系列类似，Globalese的机器翻译和人工智能平台同样注重用户友好性，致力于让机器翻译模型的训练过程尽可能简单直观。无论是经验丰富的 NLP （自然语言处理）工程师，还是翻译和本地化领域的新手，都可以轻松上手使用Globalese。Globalese通过插件与主流翻译管理系统实现连接，同时提供API接口，全面支持机器翻译功能，便于集成到现有的翻译工作流程中。

“Working closely with memoQ will open up opportunities that Globalese could only dream of before,” says Globalese CEO Gábor Bessenyei." In addition to leveraging generative AI and large language models (LLMs), the next evolutionary step in machine translation will be the integration of TM and MT technologies. Joining memoQ will allow us to explore new directions and create the next generation of MT solutions, providing a secure translation platform that now includes customizable machine translation in both on-premises and cloud environments.”

Globalese首席执行官Gábor Bessenyei表示，“与memoQ的深度合作将为Globalese带来此前难以企及的机遇，”“在利用生成式人工智能和大语言模型（LLMs）的基础上，机器翻译的下一个进化阶段将是翻译记忆（TM）与机器翻译（MT）技术的融合。”加入memoQ，能让我们够探索新的方向，打造下一代 机器翻译解决方案，提供一个安全的翻译平台，该平台现已支持在内部部署和云环境中进行可定制的机器翻译。

“As a company who has been using both Globalese and memoQ independently for over 10 years, we are enthusiastic about the merger of Globalese and memoQ.” shares Henry Wondergem, Translations Director at Infor. “We anticipate even more streamlined and effective integrated translation workflows, allowing us to better serve our global audience.”

Infor公司的翻译总监Henry Wondergem表示，“作为一家独立使用Globalese和memoQ已有十余年的公司，我们对Globalese与memoQ的合并充满期待。”“我们期待更加简化且高效的集成翻译流程，从而更好地服务于我们的全球客户群。”

The globalese by memoQ machine translation solution will be available to customers independently of memoQ products, as well as from within memoQ as an integrated solution. With the acquisition, memoQ is poised to deliver a more powerful, efficient translation solution, further solidifying its leadership in the industry, and reaffirming its commitment to its customers’ global business success.

memoQ 的 globalese机器翻译解决方案将作为独立产品提供给客户，同时也将作为memoQ内部的集成解决案呈现给客户。此次收购后，memoQ 将有能力提供更强大、更高效的翻译解决方案，进一步巩固其在行业中的领导地位，并再次向客表明承诺，将助力客户的全球业务成功。
