[UA-discuss] Ambassador News...

[Mark W. Datysgeld]

Thank you for the welcome.

I consider this to be a key discussion to bring to Latin America, as internationalization has become a critical concern for businesses as we recover from a series of structural crises. On top of that, very little has been discussed historically about the non-ASCII characters we use locally, and users remain unaware that it is possible for us to move towards making more natutal use of our language to represent ideas and brands online.

It has been a pleasure following the UA group during 2018, and hopefully 2019 will bring many new opportunities and activities.

Best,
