Translation Services for Publishers
Translating with skill and passion
SMG Culture is our specialist division for editorial translation and interpreting services, built on our passion for and experience in art, history, literature and tourism.
A comprehensive editorial translation service
We handle every stage of the editorial process, from editing and translation to proofreading. We provide translation, copywriting, proofreading, adaptation and optimisation services for publishers, authors and companies, drawing on our most valuable asset: expert native-speaking linguists.
Subject-matter experts with extensive experience
Our translators and revisers are native-speaking professionals with academic qualifications and experience in their respective fields of specialisation. Specialist business, financial and legal texts are entrusted to linguists in our Legal and Financial Translation Departments, scientific and technical texts are assigned to our Technical and Scientific Translations Department, and medical texts to our Medical Translations Department. The linguistic staff at our Language Research Institute keep abreast of the latest developments in the sectors we serve.
Finally, maintaining constant contact with our clients allows our translators to fully understand your message, including its most subtle nuances. For us, translating with passion is the only way to translate.
