Beti Pagourdaki
ORCO S.A.

Beti Marina Pagourdaki is a Localization Project Manager and Language Lead in the Localization Department at ORCO S.A., where she brings together linguistic expertise, project coordination, client communication, and quality assurance. With eight years of experience across different roles in the language services field, she has worked extensively with legal, marketing, and web consumer-facing content—domains where “good enough” is rarely good enough, and where context, audience, and purpose make all the difference.

She holds a Degree in Law from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and has completed additional professional translation trainings. Her background gives her a particularly sharp eye for the practical decisions behind translation quality: terminology, tone, risk, workflow, and final validation. In the context of AI-assisted translation, Beti’s work reflects the modern translation industry’s central question: if AI can produce a draft, what does human expertise still contribute? Her experience positions her at the intersection of project strategy, linguistic judgement, and reliable delivery in a rapidly changing localization landscape.
