TRANSLATION AGENCY MY LANGUAGE CONNECTION UNVEILS MOVE INTO MIDDLE EAST

Glasgow-based translation agency My Language Connection (MLC) is expanding to
Dubai, saying this marks the first of many strategic international moves
enabling it to support its ambitious growth plans.

The firm, which started out in 2017, is establishing a base in the Dubai Silicon
Oasis freezone, which is billed as the only technology park in the region that
provides both a living and working integrated community.

MLC said the move comes after milestones such as being a Scottish Edge winner in
2019, and seeing turnover reach seven figures, up by 44 per cent in the past
year alone, and having now grown to a network of more than 1,200 translators
worldwide plus increasing the Glasgow team by a fifth in 2022.

Founder and MD Victoria Nicol, who was named Young Entrepreneur of the Year at
this year’s Scottish Business Women’s Awards, pointed out that it was involved
in creating awareness as part of the Covid England Explained campaign with its
We Are Magpie client partnership among other language projects involving small
and medium-size firms and blue-chip organisations.


The firm says the expansion into the UAE opens up new opportunities in key
sectors. Picture: contributed.

She added that the firm works with clients all over the world across a range of
technical industries, and it is striving to become one of the recognised leading
boutique language service providers internationally for the medical and
technical industries.

Ms Nicol also said: “This overseas expansion gives us a physical presence in the
UAE, allows us to develop our existing relationships with [Asia-Pacific]
clients, and opens up new opportunities in key sectors with an on-the-ground
presence.



“We already have a strong foothold in Dubai, with existing partners in various
sectors. This move will support our projected growth in the medical and
technical industries and create in-roads in oil and gas, renewable energy,
construction and engineering, and marketing and media among other key sectors.”

The businesswoman was also in 2019 one of ten entrepreneurs to be honoured at a
reception held in the Houses of Parliament to celebrate some of the UK’s most
successful small businesses, while her firm in 2017 took out a £10,000 loan via
the British Business Bank’s Start Up Loans programme, something she later said
was key in growing MLC.
