Kudos to IWEC Past Awardee Vigdis Eriksen, Eriksen Translations for New Ellis Island Project in NYC

“Last week, I headed out to Ellis Island with Will, our new director of sales, where we joined the Acoustiguide team for the launch of a new audio guide experience – in 12 languages. So proud to have been a part of this important project celebrating immigrants,” says Vigdis Eriksen, CEO.
