Manila is the Philippines' capital and a major ASEAN business hub, a world leader in business process outsourcing (BPO) and IT-BPM and a growing center for financial services, shipping, and e-commerce. The Philippine courts, the Philippine Dispute Resolution Centre (PDRC), and ICC Manila proceedings often require certified Filipino-English interpreters, with Mandarin, Hokkien, Japanese, and Spanish frequently added given the large Chinese-Filipino business community. The Philippine Senate and House of Representatives hold committee and ASEAN preparatory sessions, the Makati financial district and Bonifacio Global City host Bangko Sentral regulatory meetings and multinational corporate negotiations, and the Philippine Ports Authority and Manila International Container Terminal generate shipping and maritime proceedings. Conference venues such as the Philippine International Convention Center, the SMX Convention Center, and the World Trade Center Metro Manila run IT-BPM summits and medical and finance congresses, while hospitals such as St. Luke's, The Medical City, and Asian Hospital add medical interpreting demand, whether the work is a conference in Pasay, a medical seminar in Quezon City, or a hearing in Taguig.
BeTranslated provides simultaneous interpreting in ISO-certified soundproof booths for conferences and summits, consecutive interpreting for court depositions, interviews, and client visits, liaison and whispered (chuchotage) interpreting for negotiations, site visits, and VIP tours, and remote simultaneous, video remote, and over-the-phone interpreting for online and hybrid events. We provide equipment rental, including headsets, booths, consoles, and on-site technical support. Our Manila service covers Filipino (Tagalog), English, Mandarin, Hokkien, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, and Spanish, with other languages available on request, serving the Philippine government, ASEAN meetings, the BPO and IT-BPM industry, PDRC arbitration, and the international shipping community, with court-experienced interpreters for Philippine court and arbitration assignments.
