Attendees and exhibitors at the E-Commerce Berlin Expo 2018, held at Station Berlin in Germany.

The E-Commerce Berlin Expo is held every year and provides a showcase for some of the very best brands and agencies in Europe. 2018 was one of the best yet, with 150 exhibitors, dozens of speakers and more than 5000 participants all crammed into the Station Berlin.

A few of those participants were the Language Bear staff. We were there to meet with clients, to sign new contracts and to increase our presence in the E-commerce sector. This is one of our many areas of expertise and we have provided content for some of the biggest names in the online retail sector, some of which joined us for this exciting exhibition in one of Europe’s trendiest cities.

The event

E-Commerce Berlin Expo was held on the 15th of February and was attended by several major E-commerce companies. These included Shopify, who run the world’s most popular E-commerce platform and content management system; Santander, who operate millions of personal and business bank accounts all over the world; and Trusted Shops, which is an online shopping portal.

In addition to witnessing exhibits and listening to talks, visitors to the E-Commerce Berlin Expo could also partake in some invaluable networking. This is the main reason that we attend, and it’s one of the best things about this event and events like it. Those 5000 participants are all involved with the E-commerce sector in some way, and they are all looking to establish partnerships, acquire clients, and even to make friends.

These shows, and the exhibitions they host, also provide agencies like ours with the chance to stay up to date with the latest technological and regulatory changes, as well as changing trends and fads.

It’s why we make it our duty to attend as many of these shows as possible, and why we would recommend the same to every other agency, brand and entrepreneur in this sector.

If you couldn’t make it to E-Commerce Berlin Expo 2018 or 2019, then book your place at the 2020 expo, which kicks-off in February 2020. Who knows, you may even see the Language Bear team there!

How Automotive Translation Services Take Your Car Content Global
Going global with a car range is never just one translation job. Manuals, configurators, marketing, and legal content all have to land in each market, in the right units, names, and regulated wording. Here is what separates automotive content that travels well from content that reads like an import.

Marketing Translation Services: Adapting Campaigns for New Markets
A campaign is more than one piece of copy. The ad, the landing page, the emails, and the checkout all have to work together to turn a click into a sale, and that has to hold up in every market you enter. Closing that gap is what marketing translation is really for.

What Affects the Cost of Translation
A translation quote can feel like a black box, but it rarely is. A few clear factors decide what a project costs, and once you know them you can plan a budget and brief the work with real confidence. Here is what actually sits behind the number.

The Content Localization Playbook for Taking Your Library Global
Years of guides, landing pages, and emails are already sitting in your content library, and most of that value never leaves its original language. A tiered approach changes that: localize what earns first, fill each market's gaps, then build depth. Here's the playbook for turning one library into a native presence in every market you enter.

Transcreation: When Translation Isn’t Enough
A flawless translation can still miss. Translation stays loyal to the words, but the joke, the rhythm, or the cultural reference often lives in the wording rather than the dictionary meaning. That is where transcreation comes in, and knowing when to reach for it keeps a brand sounding like itself everywhere.
