Brooklyn, New York, August 16, 2022 – Eriksen Translations Inc., a leading provider of best-in-class translation and localization services, is proud to announce its inclusion on the Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America.

Working in more than 100 languages, Eriksen sustains long-term relationships with major companies in finance, insurance, law, health care, and education, as well as nonprofits, NGOs, New York City and State agencies, and leading museums and cultural institutions. In July 2022, independent market research firm CSA Research named Eriksen one of the top 100 LSPs in the world and top 30 LSPs in North America.
