NEW YORK, New York, February 18, 2008 – TransPerfect, the world’s largest privately-owned provider of language and business solutions, today announced the opening of a new office in Phoenix, Arizona, in a move that underscores the city's growing demand for international communication services. The new TransPerfect location will enable the company to better serve existing clients throughout the southwestern United States, while also providing local service to clients in Phoenix—the nation’s fifth largest city.

The decision to open this office was motivated by the state’s rapid growth-rate (second only to neighboring Nevada), as well as the continued growth of the city's high-tech industry. According to Liz Elting, TransPerfect's President and CEO, “Phoenix, and Arizona as a whole, is one of the country’s most diverse and rapidly growing regions. In addition to expansion in the technology and manufacturing industries, more than 20% of the state’s population uses Spanish as a primary language. There’s a large demand for our services from virtually every sector and we’re pleased to be able to provide a local client services team.”
