    LANGTECH 2002:

    NEW INTERNATIONAL EC SUPPORTED CONFERENCE DEDICATED
    TO SPEECH AND LANGUAGE TECHNOLOGIES.

    Paris, France, 17th June 2002

    Speech and language technologies, a sector with growing relevance
    to the European business marketplace, will be the focus of a comprehensive
    industry forum: LangTech 2002, to be held in Berlin on September 26-27, 2002.

    The pace of commercial deployment of speech and language technologies
    has lead to strong calls for a high-level industry conference to showcase
    advancements and bring developers, entrepreneurs and researchers together
    with integrators, investors and corporations.

    LangTech 2002 will address the state of play from an industrial, R&D and
    academic viewpoint and demonstrate the potential to corporations to improve
    business processes through the adoption of speech and language technologies.

    Examples of contemporary language technologies in action include speech
    recognition interfaces, website translation tools, content management
    systems and
    cross lingual search engines. These technologies have found applicability
    in real
    world contexts from CRM to e-commerce and software localisation.

    LangTech is an EC supported initiative, through the involvement of EUROMAP
    Language Technologies.
    Bente Maegaard, Central Co-ordinator, EUROMAP, stated,
    "we view LangTech as an important development in bringing together the
    various parties
    comprising the language technologies sector for high level interaction and
    discussion.
    The conference is particularly useful for smaller concept developers
    seeking a valuable
    promotional platform."

    Agenda topics address the latest technology breakthroughs and are presented by
    experienced practitioners in the field. Practical solutions and near-market
    research results
    are presented during the conference and in the accompanying exhibition, showing
    state-of-the-art products and solutions. Special 'pitch' sessions will
    enable SME's and
    start-up companies to promote their concepts and explore financing
    possibilities, and a
    funding session will highlight the venture capital community views on
    language technology
    investment.

    Speaking contributions have already been secured from leading industry
    players including SAP,
    LingTech, DaimlerChrysler and Conexor. Noted technology scientist,
    Professor Wolfgang Wahlster,
    from the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), will
    make a keynote address.

    Members of the press are cordially invited to apply for press accreditation
    for LangTech 2002
    via organisation@lang-tech.org.

    Delegate registration for LangTech 2002 is available via the official
    conference website

    speakers.
    Registrations received before July 1, 2002 will benefit from a discounted
