ENABLING ACCESS TO FRENCH-SPEAKING MARKETS
French a ‘remote memory from school’ and no in-house linguistic capabilities?
But you'd like to...
- Export to French-speaking markets and take your business to the next level?
- Communicate with your local French-speaking prospects, customers or partners?
- Have access to a flexible resource to complete documentation in French so you can set up or grow your business in French-speaking markets?
Valeriane enables organisations lacking in-house
French capabilities to reach out to their French-speaking stakeholders by combining commercial and linguistic expertise.
These can include
many varied situations where communication in French is a
pre-requirement or adds value such as:

- Communication with local stakeholders
- Support with tenders
- Completion of documentation
- On-site representation at local events
- Sales campaigns targeted at French-speaking prospects
Because of our strong commercial background, Valeriane understands the strategic imperatives of projects and provides much more than 'just a translation service'!
