In this special episode recorded live at GALA 2025 in Montreal, we sit down with Andrew Hickson, Media Production Manager at Ludeo Studios and longtime champion of Translators Without Borders. Andrew shares the story behind the beloved GALA fundraiser, now a tradition since 2017, and how it continues to raise awareness—and funds—for language access in underserved communities.
We discuss the importance of community in the language industry, the challenges facing small and mid-sized LSPs, and the launch of Kangaroo, a new QA tool developed by Ludeo Studios. Whether you missed the event or just want to hear more about the people and passion behind it, this conversation offers a look into what makes our industry more than just business.
