Discover Where Language Interpreting Takes You: Interpreting for the BIO International Convention

Every assignment is something different as an interpreter. You constantly learn new information, and meet a countless number of knowledgeable and influential people. Check out the work of interpreters at a recent BIO Convention!  

June 15th-18th marked the 2015 meeting of the BIO International Convention, an event focused on Biotechnology. Over 15,000 representatives of companies focused on international life science innovation and application gathered in Philadelphia to discuss the current and future advances and implications of the bio industry.  This large, international crowd required the help of many language interpreters and translators, and we provided conference interpreting and other services for the event!
