Diction expands with the acquisition of Korrekturselskabet.

Diction ApS translation agency takes over Korrekturselskabet ApS, which specializes in proofreading for private and business customers through the websites www.studiekorrektur.dk and www.erhvervskorrektur.dk. This marks a strengthening of Diction's efforts in proofreading, as well as an expansion of the language services offered to customers.

Increased need for proofreading among customers

Both Diction and Korrekturselskabet have experienced increasing demand for proofreading from their customers. Korrekturselskabet will continue as a separate brand, and the director of Korrekturselskabet, Martin Handberg, becomes Head of Proofreading Department at Diction.

Martin Boberg, CEO of Diction, has the following to say regarding the acquisition:

– Korrekturselskabet and Diction complement each other's services in a natural way. Diction's specialty has been translation, while Korrekturselskabet has succeeded in becoming the market leader in proofreading in Denmark. At Diction, we look forward to taking over the proofreading part to a greater extent and realizing the untapped potential we believe exists in Korrekturselskabet. With Diction's presence in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Iceland, we can quickly make the proofreading concept international.

Diction also offered proofreading as a service before the acquisition, which will make it easy to implement and contribute to the expansion of Korrekturselskabet's operations and order volume.

Korrekturselskabet's growth journey

The Danish company Korrekturselskabet ApS has since 2014 delivered proofreading to over 4,000 different customers. The business is run digitally from www.erhvervskorrektur.dk and www.studiekorrektur.dk, and the customers range from students to public authorities and institutions. Korrekturselskabet collaborates with over 50 freelance proofreaders, whom Diction looks forward to welcoming and continuing the good cooperation with.

Former CEO of Korrekturselskabet, Martin Handberg, has the following to say about Korrekturselskabet's future opportunities:

– Korrekturselskabet has, over several years, succeeded in establishing itself in Denmark and making itself visible, with a plan to expand beyond Denmark's borders as a possible step 2 in the strategy. This can now be realized in a natural way in connection with the new solution, which also contributes to the great journey Diction itself has undertaken.

Consolidation of forces and use of new technology

In a time of more technology and increased competition in the language industry, it is time to join forces and thus be ready to welcome the future with the best conditions:

Martin Handberg says:

– The goal for Korrekturselskabet has always been to run an agile and secure business, while meeting the customer at eye level and delivering authentic and present customer service. This has become a successful story that is now ready for a new chapter, and to fulfill a greater potential in a larger context. As the leader of Korrekturselskabet, I have kept myself updated on the translation industry and followed Diction's journey closely, also in dialogue with Martin Boberg. We have assessed that the time is now ripe to continue the growth journey for both companies.

Martin Boberg agrees and adds:

– We will have more than enough translation tools in the future. What we will need are new language experts who can verify translations, add nuances, and be creative with the language. The goal is to make it cool to work with languages, and especially niche languages
