Mastermind Translations Ltd, a specialist language service provider working exclusively with life science organisations, is proud to announce its successful certification in both ISO 17100 (translation services) and ISO 18841 (interpreting services).
This dual achievement formalises the company’s rigorous internal standards and reinforces its position as a trusted partner for life science organisations — particularly in the pharmaceutical and medical device industries — requiring bespoke language solutions in highly regulated markets across the UK, Europe, and the USA.
By focusing solely on life sciences, Mastermind Translations offers more than linguistic expertise — it brings deep domain knowledge, sector-specific insight, and a nuanced understanding of the regulatory landscape. This clarity of focus enables the team to support a wide range of document types and workflows with precision, helping high-growth life science organisations streamline operations and reduce the burden of compliance.
“Our clients often work under pressure and do not have time to explain the basics,” said Director Katarzyna E Slobodzian-Taylor. “They rely on us to understand their industry, their documentation, and the regulatory procedures of the markets they serve. These certifications are a reflection of our mindset and our promise to deliver language services that truly align with the realities of their world.”
The company’s translation services support pharmaceutical clients throughout the lifecycle of EU marketing authorisation — from initial submissions to post-approval variations and pharmacovigilance. In parallel, the team helps medical device manufacturers ensure compliance with the EU MDR and applicable national requirements, providing precise, audience-appropriate translations of labels, IFUs, GUIs, and technical documentation.
More recently, the company has expanded its offering to include on-site language support for international GxP audits, and has already successfully supported audits in Germany, Switzerland, and Spain. The ISO 18841 certification further validates its established approach, combining sector knowledge with the right linguistic talent and systems to ensure clarity, accuracy, and compliance — even under the highly demanding cognitive conditions of live audit environments.
Mastermind Translations is proud to work with a growing number of Medilink Midlands members and looks forward to further strengthening its valued relationships within the network.
