Language Service Providers (LSPs) have to deliver a dimension of depth while offering their translation, localization and proofreading services, as direct linguistic manipulation of the required content would fail to achieve the desired results.

While catering to over 150 Indian and foreign languages, White Global (WG), a Pune-based LSP operates with an eye for sentimental details of the targeted community. “When we translate something or localize a product, the delivery has a flavor of the sensibilities of the particular country/locality making it acceptable to the people that we cater to,” expounds Sheetal Ramkumar, Founder & CEO, WG. Utmost care is taken in comprehending the sentiments, culture and behavior of localities of distinct geographies, blurring language barriers concurrently.
