LEHI, UT--(Marketwired - February 07, 2017) - Lingotek | The Translation Network today announced that it will significantly expand its corporate sponsorship of Drupal.org and the Drupal Association. Drupal is used on over one million websites and is the most used CMS for high traffic websites like Twitter and Pinterest. Lingotek will be supporting a Drupal community of more than one million members.
Lingotek's support helps the Drupal community with funding, infrastructure, education, promotion, distribution, and online collaboration to increase its ability to deliver personalized, multilingual content and better user experiences for global customers.
Lingotek was a founding member of the Technology Supporting Partner Program and now will be contributing to Drupal.org's Localize.Drupal.org, Multilingual Documentation, and Drupal Solutions web pages, conducting a joint translation webinar, providing a featured blog post, and upgrading to a Premium Technology Supporting Partnership.
"Lingotek has been a Drupal.org supporter for several years now," said Rob Vandenberg, President and CEO of Lingotek. "Our long partnership with Drupal has been key to Lingotek's success, and we are honored to be a key component for multilingual Drupal users now and in the future."
Lingotek is not only a major sponsor of Drupal.org, the company is a long-time contributor to the Drupal community. Lingotek was recently named as a top 30 Drupal Contributor by Dries Buytaert, CTO of Acquia and founder of Drupal and Drupal.org. Lingotek has sponsored, attended, and presented educational sessions at over 100+ DrupalCamps and DrupalCons around the world over the past several years.
"The Drupal Association is an educational non-profit organization that tasks itself with fostering and supporting the Drupal software project, the community, and its growth," said Megan Sanicki, Executive Director of Drupal Association. "Our long partnership with Lingotek and other supporters like them is key to the Drupal Association's success, and we are pleased to have Lingotek continue and expand their partnership role."
