GODUDU: world in your language

GODUDU: first success and first awards

The month of October 2011 was marked by two outstanding events for the Russian IT sector, and both these events are connected with the "DUDU Communications".

International awards program “International Business Awards”, which covers all spheres of marketing communications and which assesses the most outstanding achievements in business all over the world, highly evaluated first success of this rather young company and awarded “DUDU Communications” with two main prizes – in categories of “Best new product or service of the year in Media and Entertainment” and “Best software development/design”. Moreover, "DUDU Communications" became a prizewinner in the categories of “The most innovative company of the year in the Middle East and in Africa” “The Company of the year – Media”.

More than 3000 participants, various organizations and individuals, from more than 40 countries of the world aspired to win in International Stevie Award. Among the prizewinners there were such large international companies as Bombardier Inc., General Motors, Siemens AG, AB Electrolux, Cisco, Etisalat, DHL Express, BMW Group, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, Dunlop Manufacturing Inc., American Express, and many others, including Russian companies such as “Gazprom” and “Magnit”. The winners were chosen in two rounds by almost 200 professionals from all over the world.

The award Stevie – from the Greek world “crowned” – was given to the winners during the Gala Dinner, which took place on October 11 2011 in the hotel “Emirates Palace” in Abu-Dhabi.

New network for unlimited communication

The company “DUDU Communications" is highly evaluated by the international community for its project of the first multilingual social network, where users can communicate in any available in the system language. For example, you could send messages to your friends in India and United Arab Emirates even if you don’t know any language except Russian. The system will translate your messages to Hindi or Arabic, and the messages of your friends – to Russian. Moreover, today the most popular social networks, with which Godudu easily integrates, can’t boast the same ability. This trainee system of on-line-translations with the technology of artificial intelligence will allow to erase language barriers and to find a lot of new friends from all over the world.

High business evaluation

International presentation of multilingual network Godudu.com took place on October 15 2011 in the hotel Burj-Al-Arab, Dubai. Business-communities showed great interest in this promising project. Among the guests of this event there were representatives of more than 10 countries of the world: members of the ruling families Al-Nahyan (Abu-Dhabi) and Al-Maktoum (Dubai), delegation from Dagestan together with the First Deputy Prime Minister Rivzan Kurbanov, ambassadors and diplomats, representatives of the largest local and international companies, celebrities of the show business. They all highly evaluated this project’s potential.

The author of this project Alibek Isaev confesses that though from the beginning Godudu was not his only interest in life, today he pushed back all other projects and focused only on the project Godudu.

One of the key moments of this presentation was signing of a cooperation agreement with the Turkish holding Cukurova Group, which within a year should help the project to attract 20 million new users.

World in your language

Fans of the Internet-communications have already evaluated the benefits of this multilingual social network. Today the number of Godudu fans is close to 1,5 millions, and every day up to 20 000 new users register on Godudu.com. Till now they can communicate in six languages: Arabic, English, Italian, Russian, Turkish and Hindi. However, this is only the beginning. In perspective the company plans to add to this list one new language every month.

Registration in Godudu.com. is very simple. You can download your photos there, find friends and get acquainted with new people, send messages and comment messages of other people, download multimedia, listen to radio, read news and share your thoughts with the rest of the world. Moreover, the user gains the possibility to learn foreign languages, also in the form of a game.

Of course, participants of this project are very happy to get international recognition. They hope that Russia will also see the true value of this project, which they position as Russian. The project already has some Russian partners. The office of the company is planned to be opened in Russia in January with Ahmed Murtuzaliev at the head.

On the press-conference, taking place on October 15 2011 in Dubai, the author of the project, businessman Alibek Isaev noted that this project is very important to him, because more than 30 people of different nationalities live in Dagestan, his homeland, and each nationality has its own language. He expressed the hope that in the course of time Godudu will give an opportunity to people of different nationalities to communicate in their native language.
