Business Growth

In what industry sectors do you see the greatest growth for SMEs?

I strongly believe that the translation and language industry will experience significant growth in 2013, outperforming other industries.

According to a market research study by the firm Common Sense Advisory, the market for language services will total $33.5 USD billion this year, and overall, the translation industry has experienced a compound annual growth rate of 12.17%. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects industry growth of 42% this decade, which exceeds growth estimates for other industries evaluated. The demand for translators and interpreters will continue to grow, and most of these operate as sole traders or SMEs. In my opinion, the US will slowly be replaced as the strongest player in the translation industry, and Australian SMEs and sole traders will become increasingly important.

Other industries will always depend on the language services industry to get their content translated to succeed in other markets, and machine translation technology will never be advanced enough to replace human translators in the majority of domains.
