In this episode of The Translation Company Talk Podcast, we sit down with Charles Campbell, founder and president of Translation Back Office and a board member of Vamos Juntos, to explore business opportunities and challenges for language service providers across South America and the Caribbean. Charles shares a candid view of today’s market conditions and how uncertainty, shifting priorities, and cost pressures are impacting translation, interpreting, and localization, and why leaders need to pause, reassess, and adapt quickly.

The conversation also dives into the rise of Vamos Juntos as a regional industry force bringing together LSPs, buyers, and technology providers for in-person collaboration and knowledge-sharing. Charles explains how the conference is helping strengthen professional standards, spotlight regional talent, and build stronger connections between Latin America, the Caribbean, and the global language industry, while keeping the focus on community, learning, and practical takeaways for everyone navigating change.
