MULTILATERAL is not a translation agency. It is a professional services company with a strong emphasis in languages and cross-cultural communication run by its owner and lead interpreter, Cecilia Lipovsek.

However, as I can only be in one place at any given time, I sometimes rely on my selected network of trusted colleagues and strategic partners both in Latin America and in Britain to ensure my clients receive the world-class service they deserve.

I purposely do not list any client names or their logos on my website. This is to protect their confidentiality as well as that of the events and projects we assist them with.

INTERPRETING & CO. is MULTILATERAL’s instant, professional help.

A unique combination of language interpretation services and cross-cultural communication skills, general knowledge, business etiquette and international protocol, people skills, the latest technology, and ad-hoc local host advice organised through THE SAVVY COMPANIONS™ to help you communicate across cultures seamlessly and achieve your goals.

Working with me is very simple. It only takes 3 steps:

1. Choose the best option for your needs.
2. Request your quote and confirm your payment.
3. Work your magic while my team and I work ours!

THE SAVVY BRIDGE™ is a combination of online Resource Hub, Self-paced Academy, and Intensive Camps designed to help you tackle the 93% of communication that is non-verbal when in multicultural settings.

It deals with cross-cultural communication skills, business etiquette and international protocol, people skills, and the latest online technology so you can find a smoother path towards your goals.

'Savvy' means practical knowledge and ability; know-how, if you will.

A savvy person is someone who is clever and knows how to deal with situations successfully, which is what we all want both in business and when dealing with unfamiliar cultures.

Basically, it is about feeling like a fish in any water.

THE SAVVY TERP® is a series of business-minded, practical, online programmes for fellow professional, qualified conference and business interpreters of all languages to help them go from being just another drop in the (digital) ocean to approaching their work as terpreneurs™ with a purpose and in their own style.

Signing up for my SAVVY programmes is very simple. It only takes 3 steps:

1. Choose the best programme for your needs.
2. Fill in the enrolment form, and enter your payment info if it applies.
3. Enjoy the process of finally getting SAVVY!
