In addition to being one of the most widely spoken and studied languages in the world, Spanish is also an important language in the world of business and international trade. It is so important that even the Instituto Cervantes, the official Spanish institution in charge of promoting Spanish and Hispanic cultures beyond Spain’s borders, includes the economic impact of Spanish in its annual report on the situation of the Spanish language in the world.
The fact that the Spanish-speaking community is so big and so geographically distributed throughout the world means that Spanish is, without a doubt, of great international relevance in trade relations as well.
In the specific case of Spain, 79% of Spanish exporting companies believe that the fact that Spanish is spoken in the target market may facilitate their international activity. This figure rises to 84% among companies already established in non-Spanish markets.
Besides Spanish firms, more and more companies around the world are interested in establishing business relationships in countries where Spanish is spoken or locating their products on the Spanish-speaking market in countries where Spanish is not the mother tongue, such as the United States.
To ensure the success of their business relationships in Spanish-speaking countries and the effectiveness of communication campaigns aimed at Spanish speakers, these companies need professionals from all fields and business areas who have adequate knowledge of Spanish, especially business-oriented Spanish.
