Preston’s Lifeline sources interpreters from across Europe for China event

Preston-based Lifeline Language Services has provided interpreting services for a major business matchmaking event organised by UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) and Bank of China.

The only interpreting provider selected for the event, Lifeline sourced no less than 79 professional and experienced Mandarin interpreters from all over the UK and Northern Europe to provide both simultaneous interpreting for the opening addresses and face-to-face interpreting for the important matchmaking discussions.

“We were very honoured to be selected by UKTI and Bank of China as exclusive provider of interpreting services for this major event and look forward to working with both more over coming years. We are passionate believers that high quality translation and interpreting services play an essential role in ensuring UK plc can fully harness opportunities from across the world.”

“This match-making event was an excellent opportunity for UK and Chinese businesses to share industry insights, discuss market developments, break down trade barriers and develop relationships. “The companies benefited from being able to meet face to face in order to explore doing business together.”
