2G Digital Post, the industry leader in digital supply chain solutions, announces that it has acquired the operating assets and intellectual property of Sub-Techs, a premier localization company; and its launch of a new, wholly-owned localization subsidiary in India called 2G Localization.
With this acquisition and launch, 2G is bringing a robust suite of localization services fully under its roof and expanding its global footprint. This latest expansion will add over 500 contract translators in more than 25 countries, capable of working in 40 languages and dialects to the 2G family. Sub-Techs has been an operating partner of 2G for nearly three years.
“We are delighted to announce the further expansion of our localization business,” says 2G President and CEO Jordan Jacobs. “These steps will enable us to further expand our capabilities in foreign language translation, subtitling, voice dubbing and metadata localization. It will allow us to provide a truly end-to-end service offering to our clients, something that we recognize is becoming an increasingly critical component to their operational success in the global distribution of their content.”
“We are also passionate about the security of our client’s content,” Jacobs adds. “We are working diligently to ensure that the highest standard of security protocols, which we’ve instituted in our other services over the years, get equally applied here, while taking into account and addressing the unique challenges that a distributed localization workforce brings.”
