The History of Alpha Translation Service
Alpha Translation Service was founded in 1991 in Cottbus, in the former East Germany. In the years of economic resurgence following German reunification, founder Ingolf Hunger recognised at an early stage the potential of professional language services and swiftly established the company as a respected provider in the German market.
Built on a consistent commitment to quality and a reliable, partnership-based approach to client service, Alpha developed steadily and sustainably. A Berlin office was opened in 2014, followed by expansion into Belgium in 2018. When An Stuyven assumed managing directorship in 2016, the company’s international orientation gained further momentum. The headquarters were subsequently relocated to Berlin, alongside a strategic focus on sophisticated marketing translations — an area in which Alpha has distinguished itself through linguistic precision and stylistic expertise.
Expertise Across Multiple Specialisations
Our translation agency has a wealth of practical experience with translations in different specialist fields, including engineering, medicine, art and culture, legal texts and especially: Marketing. In addition to trained translators, we maintain close contact with experts who specialise in the required fields. This is important to ensure that the translations in any field are of high quality, not only in terms of the language but also with regard to terminology and style. Taking this into account, we also prepare translations in accordance with ISO 17100 upon request.
