MPower Partners Fund, a global ESG-focused venture capital fund, has invested in WOVN Technologies, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "WOVN"), a company that provides a website and mobile app localization solution to support the internationalization of enterprises and governments.

 As globalization accelerates and the world becomes increasingly connected, it is critically important for any organization to develop and manage up-to-date multilingual websites and maintain localized content. WOVN’s technology significantly reduces the cost and time required for system development, website operations, and translation management, which can be retrofitted to existing websites, automatically detect changes in rich and dynamic contents, and be translated into 43 languages. 

 MPower Partners supports WOVN’s mission to “create a world where all people can access all data in their native language” and looks forward to working together to realize a multilingual/multicultural symbiotic society by helping WOVN expand globally.
