SMG Culture

Since 2018, SMG Languages has worked with the Galician Tourism Agency, translating large volumes of multilingual material for its website, brochures, leaflets, contracts and documents for the agency’s international relations. The services provided, in particular SEO-friendly translations, are very carefully curated to ensure linguistic-cultural adaptations that convey accurately values and traditions to a foreign audience, whilst respecting their cultural particularities and paradigms. The collaboration with the Galician agency has continued over time, and, in 2020, SMG Culture was commissioned to take care of editorial and cultural translations in different digital formats using automated systems to combine them with the original content already present on the agency’s web publications.

Native language experts and fast delivery

Again, in 2020, SMG Culture began providing the Siglo Foundation – Tourism and Art of the Junta de Castilla y León with translation and localisation services for written and audiovisual material, as well as simultaneous and consecutive interpreting services. We manage translation projects with peaks up to over 55,000 words on urgent deadlines and provide support for our client at congresses, conferences, institutional visits and exhibitions with interpreting services that help strengthen institutional ties and promote the region’s image.

As always, what distinguishes the offering of SMG Culture is the pool of specially selected translators based on their language skills and familiarity with the subject matter, assigning to the client a stable pool of native language experts in the main cultural areas covered, including gastronomy, tourism, economics, law, archaeology, palaeontology, museography, education, art history, and ethnography, to name but a few.

SMG Culture overcame the challenge by providing highly experienced interpreters and its own innovative web conferencing platform, which meets the strict requirements for security, privacy and efficiency set by the European Council in its Guide on Videoconferencing in Cross-border Proceedings.The result of extensive research, innovation and flexibility, the remote interpreting service provided by SMG Culture ensured the client’s business continuity and reduced the cost of the service by 35%, as well as making it possible to deliver additional unprogrammed, urgent services.
