I'm a supporter of an artificial language closely related to Esperanto, called Ido. And I have to say that although this may not be what the creators of Esperanto and Ido expected, there is an interesting movement behind these two languages (and others). It's not used at industrial levels, for all I know, but if you look around on the internet, you'll find a few sites about both of them.

I fear the only "industry" using Esperanto is that of producing Esperanto language books.
The idea that led to the creation of the language was noble and nice, but it did not catch on, and esperantists are pitifully few, so that the only businesses using the language are those that cater to that specific niche.

Esperanto died as soon as was born.
The only text I ever saw in that language was in the directions for use in a pay phone at Schipol, Amsterdam's
International Airport.
There might be some book tranlated into Esperanto, but the fact that there is nobody whom to practice with, makes it worthless. sob...

Probably in Linguistic classes. That's the only time I have seen it.
