Heritage
Prontomondo is a translation and interpreting agency established in Milan in 1985 as a company offering services to help communicate with foreign countries. The winning idea? The telephone conversation between speakers of different languages with the help of an interpreter who translates in real time.
The three-way conference call (over the phone interpreting) becomes our flagship service. All major newspapers talk about it and the concept is well represented by our historical logo.
We soon become the reference point for language services of small, medium and large Italian and foreign companies and private individuals. Our mission? Helping our customers to communicate with foreign partners over the phone, by means of written translations or with the help of professional interpreters during meetings or business negotiations.
Over time, Prontomondo has met the new needs of its clients, also dealing with technical translations and manuals, translations of legal texts and contracts. Interpreting too is no longer just a matter of telephone or negotiation; our interpreters are increasingly required for simultaneous and consecutive services on the occasion of conferences or congresses.
