General Information
Name of the solution: Semantic links
Solution's owner: Publications Office, Europe
Description: Language barriers in the EU make the European market fragmented and decrease its economic potential. The EU institutions aim to overcome language obstacles and increase cross-border e-commerce by building open multilingual tools and features free of charge. This public multilingual knowledge management infrastructure will support e-commerce solutions, such as machine translation, localisation and multilingual search, by creating interoperable multilingual classifications and terminologies that will be easily reusable by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and public administrations. SMEs are currently at a disadvantage compared to big companies due to the high cost of providing multilingual services.
