Unbabel experienced a number of exciting milestones last year in our journey to deliver the most robust multilingual customer experience: We introduced new offerings such as our Zendesk Messaging Integration, hosted the second annual LangOps Universe, expanded our leadership team, and were shortlisted for the Inc. 5000 list for the California region. As we build upon this success to further support our vision, I am excited to announce that we have acquired EVS Translations.
EVS Translations is a single-source translation supplier for all language requirements and a market leader for premium human translations. This acquisition will open new opportunities for growth and expand our global translation capabilities for our customers.
Why EVS Translations is the Natural Fit for Unbabel
An international translation company founded in 1991 in Offenbach Main, Germany, EVS Translations is the ideal specialized content translation partner for advancing our global offerings. EVS Translations boasts nearly 150 employees across offices in Germany, England, Bulgaria, and the USA, and brings Unbabel the ability to combine deep linguistic skills with tech-driven solutions to help clients deliver a diverse range of multilingual content.
As a recognized industry leader for highly specialized content in all areas of corporate communication translations, EVS Translations has particular expertise in the finance, legal, and automotive industries. Bringing EVS Translations into the Unbabel family unlocks access to a greater variety of sectors and use cases and will enable us to deliver specialized content to wider industries. It will also allow us to transition more workflows onto our platform, helping to reduce costs and time to translate for our customers.
“This exciting partnership elevates our joint organization to the next level of translation service providers. Joining Unbabel enables EVS Translations to provide our clients with the best possible mix of cutting-edge tech solutions and the premium quality human translations that EVS is known for within a secure environment.”
– Edward Vick, CEO of EVS Translations
