1 GLOBAL PARTNER, 16 LOCAL OFFICES

milengo Inc. is the largest 2nd Generation (2G) Localization Alliance in the market. Incorporated in the US, milengo is formed by 16 leading technical translation and localization companies located in the most important global IT markets spanning Western, Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America and Asia.

As a full-service company, we perform technical translations, software and website localization, software engineering, desktop publishing, functional and linguistic testing and other consulting services without leaving the boundaries of the organization. By removing the traditional intermediary layers found in the 1st Generation subcontracting models, we are able to create a seamless and more direct relationship with our clients.

milengo's primary goal is to provide multinational ICT companies comprehensive localization services that integrate with and adapt to their own internal structures. Because every company has unique linguistic, technical and communication requirements, we have designed the milengo communication and management infrastructure to be flexible enough to accommodate these specific needs.

Worldwide milengo members are governed by a unified business model that regulates the project management workflow, quality assurance standards and protocol for non-linguistic tasks. This fosters a climate of non-competitive collaboration that promotes each member's unique skills and knowledge. Whereas other companies may claim a true global presence, our technically trained translators, editors, project managers, DTP and engineering professionals are located in each milengo office around the world. Such "quality at the source" is ensured by in-house production with milengo partners and eliminates reliance on outside parties while guaranteeing consistent localization solutions.
