News Archive / Translation and Interpretation Services 02.07.2010

Whether it's website translation or in-hospital interpretation, this industry is poised for massive growth.

Talk is cheap, but solid communications are priceless in this global economy.

The U.S. military and businesses expanding overseas are two of the translation and interpretation industry's best customers. Overall, the market grew some 18 percent last year.

According to AnythingResearch.com, the translation and interpretation services industry is a $2.7 billion market that has grown an average of 22 percent a year since 2004. The health care industry is another area in need of language, partly because of the growing U.S. immigrant population.

Many opportunities exist in the business-to-business space as well. That space includes website translation and creation of multilanguage marketing materials. There are also related tech opportunities in the burgeoning market for mobile on-demand translation via SMS.
