Comments the CEO of Global Lingo, Karl Eastwood: “Despite rising global business environment pressures, we are continuing to see business growth, particularly in our interpreting, localisation and live captioning solutions. This is being driven by an increase in digital content and the need of our clients to reach a global audience. It’s not only a testament to the resilience in our industry but also the strength of the Global Lingo team. It is clear that language solutions is an essential service for our clients and a key factor in communicating with their audience.  I believe, albeit cautiously, that this will continue for the foreseeable future.”
