Need For Localization in Europe

Europe is a lucrative market for the investors and the big companies alike. More than 741 million people from different countries have the buying power. The European Union was formed in 1999 and had a unified currency. But the language is different and varied in distinct parts of the region and countries.

Most of the European Countries are developed such as Liechtenstein, Monaco, Luxembourg, Andorra, Norway, Sweden, the Netherlands, United Kingdom, and Switzerland. In 2018, Europe had a $23 trillion nominal GDP, which is the one-fourth of the world. Europe has been regarded as the second wealthiest and second-largest economy in the world, below the US by about $5 trillion. More than 500 companies which are the largest in the world have opened their offices here. This makes Europe an attractive market to conduct their business.

With that logic, anyone who wants to enter the European market should consider localization and translation as an important aspect of their market. If you want to expand the market, businesses need to not just localize the website but also their products and services.
