Interpreters Unlimited Named to Fastest Growing Companies List

SAN DIEGO, October 31, 2024 — Fresh off of being named one of America’s Top 100 Small Businesses by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Interpreters Unlimited (IU) has received another honor, securing a spot on the San Diego Business Journal’s 2024 Fastest Growing Companies List. These back-to-back accolades reflect IU’s steadfast commitment to growth, innovation, and excellence within the language services industry.

For over 50 years IU has been a leader in providing foreign language interpretation, American Sign Language (ASL), and document translation services across diverse sectors, including healthcare, education, legal, and government agencies. This recognition from the San Diego Business Journal highlights IU’s ongoing dedication to advancing client support and communication accessibility for Limited English Proficient (LEP) communities.

For IU’s clients, this award signifies the peace of mind that comes with partnering with a company validated as a top-tier service provider. “Being named one of San Diego’s fastest-growing companies is more than a growth indicator for us, it represents our commitment to delivering excellence to our clients every day,” said IU COO Shamus Sayed.

IU achieved a 12% increase in revenue from 2021 to 2023 and is projected to have a 15% increase in revenue from 2023 to 2024. Revenue increases are not only great for IU’s growth, but great for local, national and international causes. IU gives back a portion of most contracts to charities and good causes including the Alzheimer’s & Dementia Resource Center, the San Diego Food Bank, Ronald McDonald House, Endangered Species International and Survivors of Torture International to name a few. From donating to humanitarian and disaster aid worldwide, to working with PATH (People Assisting the Homeless) providing housing, food, medical/street outreach programs, mental health support and more to the homeless, IU’s philanthropy is far-reaching.

Their rapid growth and commitment to excellence ensure that clients in every industry receive customized, dependable language solutions.
