Teneo Translations

Translation has become one of the most critical jobs in modern society. As the world is coming together based on information sharing and communicative advances, it is only natural that there has been a constant demand and an unprecedented need for translation of ideas from one language to another. Translation is no longer just the process of translating words, but has evolved into the transformation of meaning and intentions.

Biography
Founder of Teneo

The founder of Teneo Translations, Lena Taki, is an English mother tongue linguist with a strong scientific background who translates from Italian into English. Lena earned a Bachelor of Science in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology from the University of California at Santa Barbara. She participated in a number of research projects and worked in various hospitals and medical companies including Quality Assurance departments during and after her studies, resulting in a profound and practical knowledge of various aspects of the scientific, medical and pharmaceutical fields. A solid background and hands-on experience in these areas is mandatory when dealing with specialized and delicate translations such and medical and pharmaceutical documents.

Lena moved to a town in Italy north of Rome in 2000 and was immediately immersed in the Italian language and culture, which also plays a vital role in translation. She then earned a Certificate of Continuing Studies in Translation from City University in London and an M.A. in Translation Studies from the University of Bristol. The paths of knowledge, science and linguistics were fused together and Teneo Translations was founded in 2004. Lena is currently an active member in the professional translating, scientific and medical communities. She has translated millions of words of medical and pharmaceutical documents and more for a wide range of clients.

Philosophy

Teneo Translations is able to provide your company with accurate and reliable translations due to our blend of certified experience in both linguistic and scientific fields.

Service Analysis

All of our projects begin with an initial service analysis based upon the client’s requirements and objectives.

Customized Translations

This analysis allows us to clearly identify the client’s specific individual needs and requests, which allows us to produce translations that are customized for each client. This channel of communication between Teneo and the client will be active throughout the translation process so that our client's individual needs are clearly understood and met.

Quality Management

Quality Management is a key factor in the translation process. In addition to careful revision by the original translator, all of our translations are proofread by a second professional who is qualified and experienced in each specific field. The reviewer checks the documents for correctness, style and consistency. The translation then undergoes a final review process by the translator.

Cost-Effectivess

This streamlined approach of identifying our client’s needs and working closely with them throughout the process allows us to maximize time while producing a better result at a lower cost.
