The challenge
Event documentation has to be unambiguous for people travelling to an unfamiliar country. Dress code, schedules, venues and travel detail leave no room for a reading that is merely plausible. Alongside it sat terminology of two very different kinds: corporate brand and strategy vocabulary next to workshop and diagnostics acronyms, both of which had to land correctly for a specialist audience in two target languages.
What we did
Terminology was handled as its own deliverable rather than resolved inline, so role titles and technical terms stayed fixed across both languages. Practical detail was checked for whether a participant could act on it, not only for whether it was literally correct.
The result
Participant material and terminology delivered in Dutch and German from one aligned source.
