Universities are connected with the real world, says @RudyLoock. Much has been done in the last 20 yrs, so don't listen to those who say that universities are out of touch #2022TEF

Encouraging words from a BUYER of localisation services: humans are and will remain an essential part of the process. MT can speed things up but must be checked by humans. James Hurrell from BBC at #2022TEF
