Designing Localizable Content

Brno, Czech Republic - March 11, 2003

Moravia, a leading localization solutions provider, and Axiom Creative Consulting Inc., the award-winning content development company, are pleased to announce the signing of a Strategic Alliance contract between the two firms. The contract represents a landmark alliance within the Technical Communications industry and allows the two companies to combine their services, enabling customers to design source content for more efficient localization. Through the partnership, Moravia and Axiom will continue to enhance their best-of-breed, comprehensive e-business globalization solutions.

Foster Cronyn, President and co-owner of Axiom, believes that the services offered by Moravia are extremely complementary to his own. "Our companies share the same values and culture," says Cronyn. "Tying content development to multi-national translation solutions is difficult, if not impossible for most companies today. By taking a holistic approach to information design and localization, Axiom and Moravia can offer our customers a much richer product-set than what either company could offer on their own." Cronyn goes on to say, "Our customers ask us to provide a full outsourcing solution, which includes localization services. This Agreement marks a significant milestone in meeting this particular customer expectation."

Joe DiDamo, Vice President of Moravia's Global Business Services agrees. "The relationship with Axiom is natural, especially with the challenges presented by doing business internationally." DiDamo goes on to say that "clean source data is sometimes difficult to come by in our business and Axiom's staff is trained to develop English that is already internationalized. By combining our unique capabilities and workflow processes, our companies can offer services that are more efficient and cost effective than those offered by our competition."

In extending the scope of services to its clients, Moravia is committed to offering the best technical consulting for achieving a successful globalization process. There is an increasing demand from clients for content development and authoring services, helping them release an internationalized product in both source and target languages. Moravia and Axiom look forward to jointly helping global companies achieve truly global products.
