Our story

Christian Arno founded Lingo24 in 2001. Over the next dozen years Christian gradually built a global business, headquartered in Edinburgh but with a major hub in Romania and satellite offices in Panama and the Philippines (in order to provide the 24/7 service required by its client base).

Today, Lingo24 is a global community of over 150 friendly and enthusiastic full-time Lingo-ists and 4000+ translators. We’re committed to delivering top-notch translations for our customers and first-class “service beyond words”.

An award-winning translation agency

Over the years we’ve won numerous awards, recognising our achievements in digital marketing, innovation, customer service and representing Scotland on the world stage. Some of these awards include:

  • HSBC Business Thinking Award
  • Sunday Times Fast Track Top 100 company
  • TAUS Excellence Award for Innovation
  • Scottish Exporter of the Year

ISO certified

Lingo24 has been awarded the ISO 9001:2015 certificate, which is the  standard that sets the general guidelines for Quality Management in  business.

Being certified has many benefits for us, but also for our customers as it means more efficiency in project delivery, reduced costs and  better working practices when compared to non-certified translation  providers. It also allows customers to have peace of mind that projects are being managed in a robust and secure way, with a well-designed quality assurance system to assess translation quality at many levels.

ISO certification also gives the translators we work with reassurance  of our professionalism and commitment to quality.
