Finding a dedicated community of people, who go the extra mile to help projects be the best they can be, is no easy feat. However, if managed, it can lead to epic success.

Whether working on game translations, where local players devote their time, testing the software with test groups on Reddit, or even working on open-source TMS and machine translation solutions, community is what helps you get there. Let's also not forget the huge community of language professionals who constantly support one another.

In this panel, we’ll share some community successes and discuss how companies — both LSPs and translation buyers — can best leverage communities and boost different areas of the localization and translation industry.
