Shawn Khorassani, Director of Business Strategy & Development, presenting at the ATC conference
Prestige Network’s Business Development Director, Mr Shawn Khorassani, was invited to present during the Association of Translation Companies (ATC) Annual Conference in London towards the end of 2008; and since that time – almost two years later – the message he imparted to the delegates is still very relevant and remains unchanged.
See part one of Mr Khorassani’s excellent presentation here: Survive and Prosper
The conference dealt with how to “Survive and prosper in the tough times – strategies for the translation industry”.
However, and this may seem a little counter-intuitive, Mr Khorassani dealt with the subject of managing growth in a translation business.
Prestige Network experienced 40% growth during the last financial year and is predicted to double its turnover this year.
Such growth does not come without pains though, and Mr Khorassani shared the secrets of Prestige Network’s success in successfully overcoming these problems.

Berkshire-based language services provider Prestige Network Ltd has appointed Peter Townsley as its Assistant Operations Manager.
Reading-born Peter joined Prestige Network as a temporary language administrator earlier this year after six years as office manager for a company which specialised in the supply of industrial parts and equipment.
He impressed so much that he is now helping to oversee the delivery of Prestige Network’s language services including their popular Translation Services and Interpreting Services.
Meryem Munro, Prestige Network’s Operations Manager, said: “When Peter joined us, he was a real find. We had recognised his potential within days of him arriving and quickly confirmed his appointment as permanent.”
He said: “I am enjoying being part of a successful UK language services company. I already knew before I joined that Prestige Network was going places – last year its turnover soared 65% to a phenomenal £3 million.”

Polish Language Statistics
Polish is the 29th most spoken language in the world, and is one of the most widely spoken Slavic languages. The official language of Poland, Polish is spoken by most of the 38 million inhabitants of Poland (census 2002) and anywhere up to 48 million Poles living across the world. Countries that have a significant Polish speaking population include the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, Brazil, Israel, Canada and the United States.
Polish Dialects
There are a great many dialects in the Polish language that are unique to the various regions of Poland. For the non-native speaker, this can make Polish Translation confusing and difficult; however native Polish speakers can fluently understand all variations of the language. Prestige Network’s Polish translators and interpreters are all native speakers of the Polish language, so you know that your Polish Translation will be understood and the content and the meaning will be clearly conveyed correctly every time, regardless of the Polish dialect used in the original document.

The article said that this highlights the pressure placed on teachers by growing numbers with little or no command of English.
Mr Khorassani said: “The cultural richness which different languages and backgrounds add to a community needs to be celebrated.
“In our experience, where English is not a child’s first language, this . . . → Read More: Joining the debate about schoolchildren speaking 150 languages
