Smartling CEO Bryan Murphy on rewriting the rules for global GTM

For decades, marketing and GTM leaders have lived by the rule that when it comes to global content, you can have it fast, you can have it cheap, or you can have it good—but you can only pick two. What if that fundamental law of business is no longer true?

Agility requires meeting your global customers where they are, in their language, without sacrificing the speed your go-to-market teams need to win. This ability to deliver high-quality, localized experiences at scale and on time is no longer a luxury, but a competitive necessity.

Today, we're going to talk about how AI is not just incrementally improving content localization, but fundamentally rewriting the rules for global go-to-market strategies. We'll explore how brands can now achieve speed, quality, *and* cost-efficiency in their global content, and what that means for everything from product launches to customer experience.

To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Bryan Murphy, CEO at Smartling. Bryan, welcome to the show!
