eBRAM is a Hong Kong non-profit dedicated to facilitating business negotiations and international arbitration. The solicitors, lawyers, and legal students at eBRAM’s clients require secure translation for high volumes of legal documentation. 

Initially, legal staff used convenient and free online translation tools, which provided inaccurate translations and lacked security. With the implementation of Hong Kong’s Arbitration Ordinance (Chapter 609) and its stricter confidentiality regulations, a more secure solution became critical. This is when RWS and Language Weaver Edge came into the picture.

“Even though there are a lot of companies offering translation software in the world, I suggest working with a well-recognized company with a large customer base. There’s a reason RWS is one of the largest companies in the world and as a customer, my experience has been very good.”

Albert Leung, Chief Technology Officer, eBRAM International Online Dispute Resolution Centre
