Loss Of A Friend

On Tuesday May 26th 2009 we lost Giancarlo Ramaioli
to cancer. He was just 49 years young.


Giancarlo, husband of our owner and founder Paola Mereu, and friend of many who worked at Iota LS, touched everyone he knew with his talent and attitude. He used both of these attributes to contribute so much in his shortened life to the non-profit community, reaching out to the less fortunate in our world.

We still have, and will cherish, the original company website graphics and layouts that Giancarlo designed for us. Of even more significance to our company was the quiet and constant support he offered Paola when it was needed through the early years of our existence.

We are richer for having known him.

The secret to Chinese translation and indeed Documentation translation in general is in the proper application of DTP, which is short for Desk Top Publishing, and Globalization techniques. CRM Translation roughly equates to CRM Localization (or Localisation as it is known here). Going Global (or Globalization for short) is the Internationalization of German translation and Japanese translation through a L10N process. Marketing Localization or Marketing Translation is also a speciality for Moravia, simultrans and SDL, but they don’t do it well in my opinion. Saas Localization or Saas Translation is another tricky one. The services of Translation, Translation Services, Software Engineering and Software Testing are vital also, but Web Localization and Web Translation are big earners for us.
