Localization Market Research Firm, Common Sense Advisory, Recognizes CSOFT as a Top Player in $23 Billion Dollar Industry
Beijing, China (June 4, 2010) – China-based CSOFT International Ltd., a leading provider of multilingual localization, testing, and software development services for the global market, announced today its official ranking as one of the world’s top 35 language services providers (LSPs) in the localization industry. Released by the expert market research group, Common Sense Advisory, the report entitled “The Language Services Market: 2010” ranked CSOFT as the thirtieth top-grossing language service provider among more than 23,000 vendors around the world. In the same report, CSOFT was also named as the fourth largest localization vendor in all of Asia, which currently holds more than 7% of the entire localization market share ($1.8 billion USD).
CSOFT International was founded in 2003 by a small group of language technology veterans. They wanted to establish a localization company on a foundation of quality translation services and technological innovation. In as little as seven years, CSOFT has grown organically from a single-office operation to a multinational organization with 13 offices around the world, including locations in Europe, North America, and Australia. CSOFT’s headquarters is a cutting-edge facility situated in one of Beijing’s handful of tree-lined business parks, and it is home to the localization industry’s largest centralized technical infrastructure in Asia.
As the recent winner of an International Stevie Award for Business, CSOFT distinguishes itself from other language service providers with its staunch dedication to quality, value-driven deliverables, and fanatical customer service. Having earned both ISO 9001:2008 and 13485:2003 certifications, CSOFT delivers multilingual localization, terminology management, and translation technology solutions in over 90 languages to well respected clients across a range of industries, including Dell, Kodak, Yahoo, Adobe, Intel, Medtronic, Pfizer, Beckman Coulter, Lavasoft, and others. To date, CSOFT’s rapid development to the top tier of the localization industry has been accomplished through pure organic growth, without mergers and acquisitions—a process that allows for more consistent workflows and unified processes to ensure the highest return on clients’ localization investment.
“I’d say that being one of the top companies in a multi-billion dollar industry is a pretty good start,” began Shunee Yee, President and CEO of CSOFT. “We are very proud of the fact that CSOFT is able to offer a greater degree of personal and consistent service that our acquisition-heavy counterparts simply can’t, and that makes a world of difference when introducing your products to the world market. I’d like to thank all of our valued clientele for helping CSOFT reach this new milestone.”
