The Evolution and Future of Localization in Business

Localization is changing fast—AI, automation, and new workflows are reshaping how we work. But what does that really mean for us? How do we make sure localization isn’t just keeping up but leading the way?

Join us for a conversation with Eva Klaudinyova (Middlebury Institute) and Oleksandr Pysaryuk (GitLab), two industry pros who are helping shape the future of localization. We’ll dig into what’s happening now, what’s on the horizon, and how we as localization professionals can stay ahead.

Eva Klaudinyova

Speaker: Eva Klaudinyova

Program Chair, Translation and Localization Management, Middlebury Institute

Eva Klaudinyova has been in localization since 2000, managing programs at MediaLocate and leading teams at VeriSign, VMware, and Apple. A co-founder and Advisory Board member of Women in Localization, she now teaches as an Associate Professor at Middlebury Institute of International Studies. Originally from Slovakia, she speaks multiple languages and holds MAs in Foreign Language Teaching and Translation.

Speaker: Oleksandr Pysaryuk

Senior Manager, Globalization Technology at GitLab

With over 15 years of experience in localization technology, internationalization, and operations, Oleksandr Pysaryuk has led global localization programs at companies like GitLab, Shopify, and Ceridian. His expertise spans localization strategy, automation, AI-driven workflows, and team leadership.

What you’ll learn in this webinar:

• The future of localization
What trends should we be watching that aren’t on everyone’s radar yet?

• The Next Generation of Localization Professionals
What new skills and mindsets should newcomers have to build a solid career in localization?

• AI in Localization
Does AI actually help, create challenges, or work against us in localization?

• Localization in Product Development
Why is it critical to “bake in” globalization early instead of treating it as an afterthought?

Eva and Oleks will discuss what the future holds for localization—what it means for localization professionals, technology adoption, and global expansion strategies.
