Chief Executive O昀케cer's Review (continued)
The transformation of our IP Services division has also
progressed well. The division's translation operations
team became part of the Language eXperience Delivery
("LXD") platform and shortly after the year end the LXD
started to process IP Services content. We have also
consolidated our vendor data and contracts, generating
savings for the Group.

At RWS, we have been AI pioneers for many years. Since
昀椀rst launching statistical machine translation in 2003 and
later developing one of the world’s most advanced neural
machine translation platforms, our expert linguists and

machine translation. Since 2016, we’ve been a trusted
data training and services partner to the world’s leading
tech companies on their AI development, providing the
linguistic expertise, cultural insight and quality data
that power their success. Whether clients are exploring,
building or using AI, we have AI solutions and AI-enabled

our internal deployment.
Our LXD platform, which provides clients with access
