Abstract

The internationalization of economy requires the implementation of a network of corporate communication strategies at global level, in which multilingual and multicultural specialists are required. Exporter and importer have to deal with the different parties and activities involved in their overseas activities in a language or languages that are often unknown to them. Therefore, internationalization is a field that is custom-made for translators trained in this area, where they turn into communication agents, interpreters and cultural mediators. This paper focuses upon the description of the context in which this professional develops her/his work, and upon the activities she/he is qualified to perform.
