Our story

Vasco company was founded in 2008 by Maciej Góralski, a businessman and paramedic, who saw a real and tangible need for electronic translators. And so with this goal in mind, we grew to become one of the leaders in translating solutions market.

We fulfill this by breaking language barriers every day. Our most important task is to facilitate the communication for all people speaking different languages. With our devices, people can forget about misunderstandings and focus on new challenges, discovering the world and developing their business.

We’re proud to see we’ve gone this far. At first, Vasco was a small group of enthusiasts who wanted to popularize translating devices. Now our family consists of nearly 200 individuals from 20 countries and 4 continents. We specialize in Natural Language Processing (NLP), UX design, Software Development and Software Maintenance.

Apart from individual clients, we’re supporting several organizations, both public and private. We provide translators to the production lines, hotels, restaurants, schools, and hospitals.
