Business Wire – 24/7/365 translation services

Business Wire is the leading source for press releases, photos, multimedia and regulatory filings from companies and groups throughout the world.

Business Wire distributes press releases for their customers via a wide variety of media. The press releases mainly deal with business matters (macroeconomics, finance etc.), medical and pharmaceutical topics and IT-related issues.

Business Wire's customers have the option to have their press releases translated and published in a number of languages depending on their needs.

Since January 2000, Business Wire relies on euroscript for the execution of a large part of these translations, covering languages such as German, French, Italian, Dutch, Norwegian and Arabic, and since 2008 also Latin American Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese.

Translations of press releases are particularly time-critical.

The turnaround time for translation and revision of an average press release (maximum 600 words) is 4 hours. Translation requests from English into German, French, Italian, Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese are managed on a 24/7/365 basis.

A custom-made production system allows euroscript's project managers to monitor the progress and status of any translation project at the push of a button. Business Wire also has access to a web page where the status of each individual order can be followed at any time – providing added value through transparency.
