languages for multilingual video training creation
LKQ Europe, a leading automotive distributor with over 26,000 employees, leverages Elai, Panopto’s AI video creation studio, to streamline the creation of training and marketing video content, enabling faster, more cost-effective, and multilingual learning experiences across their organization.
Scaling video creation across Europe
Delivering consistent, engaging training and marketing content across a large, diverse workforce was a major challenge for LKQ Europe. With more than 26,000 employees spread across multiple countries, the team faced logistical hurdles, high production spend, and limited internal resources. Existing solutions were either too costly, or required significant outsourcing, slowing down content creation and updates.
Additionally, producing content in multiple languages to meet the needs of different regions was complex and time-consuming, creating bottlenecks for training deployment and marketing campaigns. LKQ Europe needed a solution to streamline production, improve efficiency, and deliver high-quality multilingual content at scale.
“With Elai, LKQ can produce training videos across Europe using Elai and deliver them via LKQ Academy, our learning management system. The ability to create content directly from PowerPoint presentations is a big advantage.”
