The founders Maarit Satukangas-Pohjola and Jukka Pohjola had already then over 15 years of experience in translation and development of technical translation solutions.
Immediately after its foundation Maris Translations Oy was accepted in a business incubator programme and it started its operation in the Lahti technology incubator, today known as the Lahti Science and Business park. That is where we began to develop our translation and language technology services, such as Lukutulkki, an online tool that helps Finnish readers understand web content written in English. Later Lukutulkki received a commendation in the national eEemeli competition for electronic learning solutions.
Many of the technical solutions that today produce added value to our customers were initiated in the technology incubator. At the beginning of its tenth year of operation Maris Translations Oy employs three people, who manage multilingual translation projects with the support of an extensive global network of expert linguists.
