Localization
Globalization
A process and a condition that involves
increasing interconnectedness of different parts
of the world through common processes of
economic, environmental, political, and cultural
change. (Knox, & Nash, 2010)
Localization
Process of adapting a product or service from one specific
locale or market to meet the requirements of another
specific market.
The aim of localization is to give a product the look and
feel of having been created specifically for a target market,
no matter their language, culture, or location.
