Our history
The founders of SAM Xlation, formerly SAM Engineering GmbH, gained extensive experience as Localization Managers and Project Engineers at Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC). They led the internationalization (I18N) and localization (L10N) of various software products and custom applications at one of DEC’s international localization centers. Their role included the simultaneous release of software in all major Eastern and Western European languages on platforms such as VMS, UNIX, DOS, Windows, and Macintosh.
When they founded SAM Xlation in 1994, they brought with them deep expertise in engineering and translation management – all to better serve our clients. Initially focused on software localization, SAM Xlation gradually expanded its service portfolio and successfully branched out into a wide range of industries and business sectors.
In memory of Hans-Joachim Pajatsch
Hans-Joachim Pajatsch, co-founder of the former SAM Engineering GmbH in 1994 and Managing Director until 2009, sadly passed away in August 2023.
