Referenze di clienti
For over a decade, The Economist has relied on Sinophone to provide simultaneous and consecutive interpretation for our meetings in China, including our signature China Summit and Bellwether China.
We have consistently received overwhelming positive feedback on the quality of the interpretation service delivered by Andrew and his team. It is no exaggeration to say that Sinophone has contributed significantly to the success of our China events.
The Yale Law School’s China Law Center has been a loyal client of Andrew Dawrant since 2002.
It is extremely difficult to find high-quality interpreters who can handle demanding legal exchanges between the US and China. A good interpreter needs to first grasp the often specialized concepts being discussed and then find and use the right technical and colloquial terms to convey accurately the nuances of very different legal systems.
Our Center has worked smoothly and successfully for over a decade with Andrew and his highly professional and competent colleagues at Sinophone Interpretation. We recommend him and his team without reservation.
We engaged Andrew to interpret for the Prime Minister of the Netherlands, H. E. Mr Mark Rutte, during his official visit to Beijing in November 2013. He provided a world-class service. Andrew’s extraordinary interpreting skills and professionalism deeply impressed both the Dutch and Chinese sides.
In my 27 years working professionally in Greater China, I have never witnessed such an accomplished and professional interpreter. I strongly recommend Andrew for any high-level visits to China by government leaders or corporate CEOs.
