Show Notes

In this episode of Nimdzi Live, host Tucker Johnson is joined by Yulia, author of the 2026 Nimdzi Language Technology Radar Report, to explore what the latest research reveals about the rapidly evolving language technology market.

Beyond mapping the technology landscape, Yulia shares what she observed while researching this year’s report, including where investment is flowing and which technologies are gaining momentum, to how providers are positioning themselves in an increasingly AI-driven market.

About Yulia: Graduated from the University of Electronic Engineering as a software engineer. Since 2010, she has worked in localization, combining strategic, control, and marketing functions. Yulia’s experience in language services, together with the urge to popularize the localization industry itself helps her contribute to Nimdzi’s research and analysis.

Let’s talk globalization, localization, translation, interpretation, language, and culture, with an emphasis on how it affects your business, whether you have a scrappy start-up or are working in a top global brand.
