The Globalization and Localization Association (GALA) recently announced its 2007-2008 board officers. The GALA Board is composed of five volunteer members elected by the GALA membership to serve two-year terms. The board welcomes two members for the 2007-2008 term: Kim Harris, co-owner and managing director of text & form GmbH, a new board member, and Arancha Caballero (TSG, Spain) who was re-elected to serve a second two-year term.

The board officer positions for 2007 are as follows: Stephen Ryan (Moravia Worldwide, Czech Republic), Chair; Kim Harris (text & form, Germany), Vice Chair; Christiane Bernier (Lionbridge Technologies, Canada), Treasurer; Matthias Caesar (Locatech GmbH, Germany), Secretary; Arancha Caballero, Board Member-at-Large.

"Our board leadership is critical to the success of GALA, and we wouldn't be the organization that we are today without them. The group works together in a highly collaborative environment to build on current initiatives and to find new ways of creating value for our members and for our industry," said Laura Brandon, the administrator for GALA.

GALA would like to thank outgoing board member, Aki Ito (TOIN Corporation), for his commitment to the association and his relentless promotion of GALA during his two-year term, particularly among constituents of the Japanese localization industry.
