ADAPT is headquartered in Bonn, and maintains offices in Barcelona and Stockholm. These currently accommodate over 30 permanent in-house staff: project managers, translation teams, localization engineers, DTP and graphics specialists, technical support and administrative personnel.
Additionally there is a strong base of regular external collaborators, and stable, long-term production teams and partners around the world.
