The growing demand for video translators is expected to accelerate the interpreter services market during the forecast period. For instance, according to the data stated by Cisco, in 2021, 80% of online traffic will be generated from visual content which will eventually increase the demand for translation, and 84% of video content on Facebook and other social media platforms is often played without sound. So, subtitles are becoming crucial.

Segmental Outlook

Based on the services, the market is sub-segmented into language interpretation, language translation, language testing & training, localization, and others including dubbing and proofreading. Based on the application, the market is sub-segmented into the BFSI, healthcare, travel & tourism, legal, media & entertainment, and others. The above-mentioned segments can be customized as per the requirements. The growing demand for interpretation services in the legal industry is expected to drive the legal segment growth over the forecast period. 

Among the services segment, language translation is expected to provide a lucrative growth opportunity to the market during the forecast period due to the rising demand for language translation services. Language translation service providers offer customers the ability to communicate to a global audience with the assistance of a professional linguist. It is the act of transferring the linguistic entities from one language into their equivalents in another language. The market players are continuously expanding their products and service to stay competitive. For instance, in October 2022, Google and Alphabet, announced the launch of Translation Hub, the company’s enterprise-scale document translation service. Translation Hub is “Google Cloud’s AI agent that helps companies translate content in over 135 languages.

The Asia-Pacific region is expected to be the fastest-growing region due to increasing urbanization and the growing number of startups in the region. Additionally, increasing immigration in the region is further expected to propel the market growth during the forecast period owing to new immigration demand expanding the current language services market to serve these populations.
