In the last few months, Conyac evolved from a Japan-centered web service into a globally recognized translation brand. During our Summer Tour in Europe, we were pleasantly surprised to run into our satisfied users at various business events across the continent. For a startup that just began expanding to global markets a few weeks ago, this was a very nice compliment and encouragement for our future work.

After our presence at the ICT Spring Conference in Luxembourg last month, Conyac Team accepted an invitation to visit friends at a large tech corporation with its headquarters in Munich, Germany. We also took time to talk to other partners and customers, as well as student groups from LMU and TUM.

After our presence at the ICT Spring Conference in Luxembourg last month, Conyac Team accepted an invitation to visit friends at a large tech corporation with its headquarters in Munich, Germany. We also took time to talk to other partners and customers, as well as student groups from LMU and TUM. All talks were recorded, and are accessible at their website, but I’d like to share the She++ presentation with you, as I found their founders’ aim to promote programming among ladies extremely inspiring:

Munich is known for its thriving economy, driven by the IT, biotechnology, and publishing sectors. Year by year it maintains its top rank among the cities with the highest quality of life and as we visited it during the sunniest summer week, we easily recognized the booming lifestyle on Munich streets. But even though the Bavarian capital is a synonym for highly developed cradle of international business, we can barely find a trace of Munich’s startup community. Large corporations didn’t leave enough room for lean entrepreneurship, and Munich’s startup scene doesn't have much in common with entrepreneurial hubs in Bay Area, Tokyo and Singapore, places where Conyac Team executes most of its operations.

However, we were pleased to see that some organizations and students take initiative to build an environment where individuals with ideas can get consultations, feedback and help with implementation of their new businesses. One of such organizations is also UnternehmerTUM, which is informing young and prosperous entrepreneurs and organizing networking events. We participated at the UnternehmerTUM Entrepreneurs’ Night, presenting Conyac to young business and IT specialists. The concept of the event was simple and direct; completely in line with German culture. Companies and individuals had an opportunity to promote themselves and their businesses and look for new opportunities and assistance. Every participant was required to state the purpose of their attendance in a few words, answering the questions “what do you need” and what do you offer”. This eased the exchange of information and after a few presentations (we were excited to see Uber’s Jena Wuu talk about taking their business to Munich, as our team regularly enjoys their transport service in San Francisco, as well as Singapore) the networking session felt like a quick and efficient ping-pong tournament. Now you are probably wondering what Conyac offered to our Bavarian entrepreneurs? In exchange for their hospitality (and a Helles + Pretzel combo), we offered event attendees free translation points they could use for making their ideas go global.

If you missed the event, but would like to see your business speak a language other than German or English, you can still contact us at support@any-door.com and tell us why Conyac should translate your content for free. Together we grow stronger and go further...
