Get ready to meet the faces and voices shaping our community, one conversation at a time in our new interview series! The Voices Behind the Words: Member Spotlight with Ioannis Kassios from TECHNOGRAFIA ❓ Can you share three interesting facts about your company? TECHNOGRAFIA has been around since 2007, and it comprises two words: TECHNO- and -GRAFIA, meaning technical writing. This twofold meaning and essence actually mirrors the two partners, Evi and Ioannis. Coincidence or not, it is also based in two countries, Greece and Cyprus, the respective origins of Ioannis and Evi. We are active around the world and always embrace new ideas, with one of the most interesting being the co-organizing of the GoAP Conference in Seoul in 2019; thus, actively, and physically present on two continents as well, Europe and Asia. ❓ If you were to create a slogan or tagline for your company using only emojis, what would it be? ❤️👓🚀🌪️ Love is for what we do, Glasses for constantly educating and developing ourselves as professionals, Rocket is for trying and exploring new things, and the Tornado is for our passion and innovation spirit. ❓ What is your view on the current state of the language industry? The language industry undergoes frequent transformations, occurring approximately every decade, or so. The advent of #LLMs has significantly impacted the industry, causing uncertainty for #LSPs and #translators about its future course and the practical impact on business. LLMs are undoubtedly here to stay, serving as a valuable asset for both the translation industry and its clients. While transitioning from traditional language approaches to data-driven methods may seem daunting, and despite the current concealed turmoil, I’m confident that the industry will be able to meet clients’ expectations by leveraging technology that fulfils their needs and expectations. 👉 Read the full interview here to learn more about the tech-savvy agency team, their commitment to R&D, and dreams of being a kindergarten teacher! https://lnkd.in/ebtmu5_5 What career would you do if you hadn't entered the language industry?
