DealRoom’s latest multi-language support feature - starting with French, now offers a localized platform experience to make cross-border M&A execution easier than ever for sellers. The ability for acquirers to engage with sellers in their native language allows sellers to navigate interface, review documents, and communicate with greater clarity and confidence, fostering trust among buyers and sellers and ultimately enables smoother, and more successful cross-border M&A transactions.
Imagine you’re managing a global M&A deal. Things are moving quickly, your team is trying to collect diligence documents and review them. Then it happens- the seller team, based outside of the US say in France, hesitates.
Not because they’re unprepared, but because the platform you’re using to collaborate is entirely in English. Menus, dashboards, tasks—everything is unfamiliar.
Now, instead of smoothly responding to diligence requests, the seller is stuck trying to figure out what to click and where to go. Emails asking for clarification start rolling in, timelines stretch, and frustration builds on both sides.
Sound familiar? That’s the reality of language barriers in cross-border M&A.
This is where DealRoom’s multi-language support comes in. Instead of forcing sellers to adapt to a tool they don’t fully understand, we’ve adapted the platform to them.
With our new feature, sellers will automatically see the platform in their native language. This isn’t just about translation, it’s about creating an experience that feels intuitive and familiar, so sellers can focus on what matters: moving the deal forward by providing documents for review and communication with the M&A team.
Becky Manders, Head of Acquisition Finance at IVC Evidensia, shares why this matters:
How Multi-Language Support Transforms the Experience
Think about it: when the tool speaks the seller’s language, everything changes. Suddenly, they’re not hesitating over unclear instructions or struggling to interpret unfamiliar terms. Instead, they’re navigating the platform with ease—reviewing documents, completing tasks, and responding to diligence requests with confidence.
With DealRoom’s multi-language support, sellers can switch the platform to their preferred language—starting with French—so every click feels familiar and every action is intuitive. And since language preferences are user-specific, everyone involved in the deal, from buyers to integration teams, gets to work in the language they’re most comfortable with.
It’s a simple change with a powerful impact: smoother workflows, faster responses, and stronger relationships between buyers and sellers.
Why Multi-Language Support Matters
1. Seamless Cross-Border Collaboration
Cross-border deals are challenging enough without adding language barriers to the mix. When the platform speaks the seller’s language, collaboration feels effortless. There’s no need for back-and-forth clarifications or makeshift translation workarounds—just clear, direct communication that keeps deals moving.
By localizing the tool experience, DealRoom ensures that every stakeholder stays aligned, timelines are met, and the focus stays on what matters: making the deal a success.
2. Simplified Seller Participation
When sellers feel included, they contribute more effectively. With DealRoom’s localized platform, sellers can focus on providing accurate information and engaging fully in the deal process, rather than wasting time trying to decipher an unfamiliar interface.
This ease of participation reduces errors, builds trust, and ensures sellers feel like valued partners—not just participants—throughout the deal. And when sellers are confident, the entire process runs more smoothly.
What’s Next: Expanding Localization
With today’s announcement, local language support for the DealRoom seller experience is now available in French. In addition, we are now able to easily add seller experience support in other European languages.
