Decrease translation costs
Companies want to tell international audiences about products and services. Translation and localisation is expensive, and companies want to minimise costs. At the Technical Communication UK conference (www.technicalcommunicationuk.com) in September, Mike Unwalla will explain why international English helps companies to decrease translation costs (www.international-english.co.uk).

Usually, software localisation is expensive and requires technical skills. Draig supplies software that simplifies the localisation process for web-based software. 'Interceptor' lets software developers easily add multilingual features to web-based software (www.draig.co.uk/draig/English/multilingual/Pages/Interceptor.aspx). A user can change languages easily.
