Language Support for Internationalisation and Cross-Border Communication
Internationalisation often begins with language. Before a company, product, service or project
can be understood in a new market, its documents, messages and supporting materials
need to be translated, reviewed and adapted to the expectations of that market.
CONVANTIA supports this process through translation, review and localisation for companies,
institutions and organisations working across South Africa, Africa, Europe and Latin America.
For internationalisation, language is not only a translation issue. It is part of how a company, product, service or project is positioned, understood and trusted in a new market.
Market-Facing Corporate Materials
Company profiles, capability statements, service descriptions, product materials, pitch decks and partner-facing documents adapted for another language, audience or market.
Tenders, Bids & Institutional Submissions

Localisation &
Message Adaptation
