Globo Language Solutions, a B2B provider of interpreting and translation services, has been named a 2025 Silver Stevie Award winner. The company was recognized in the Technology Breakthrough of the Year − Artificial Intelligence (AI) category in the second annual Stevie Awards for Technology Excellence, celebrating its two-year R&D journey to help healthcare organizations better serve limited-English-speaking patients and expand equitable access to care.
The Stevie Awards for Technology Excellence recognize the remarkable achievements of individuals, teams, and organizations that are shaping the future of technology across all industry sectors.
Winners of the awards, named the Stevies from the Greek word meaning “crowned,” will be recognized during a gala awards event on Tuesday, September 16 at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City.
More than 1,500 nominations from organizations of all sizes in 36 nations and territories were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of tech-related categories, including company of the year, educational or research institution of the year, technical innovation of the year, technology breakthrough of the year, and more, in a variety of industry groupings including advertising, marketing, and PR technology; aerospace technology; biotechnology; business technology; and healthcare technology, among others.
Last month, Globo announced offering its first healthcare-optimized AI interpreter service, Globo Kai, to clinicians and staff at 3,000 U.S. healthcare facilities. According to the company, by increasing interpreter coverage, the AI app helps mitigate communication breakdowns—known drivers of compromised care quality and outcomes.
Earlier this year, Globo also introduced Globo Live Quality, an AI-powered monitoring technology app that evaluates 100% of live video and audio interpreter sessions to help ensure a more compliant and professional experience in every encounter. Globo is utilizing Live Quality to evaluate 100% of its live video and audio interpreter sessions at its healthcare client sites. According to Globo, this type of AI oversight is especially important given the lack of a standard definition for assessing in-person interpreter quality at provider organizations nationwide.
“This recognition marks a watershed moment for Globo in advancing AI to expand accurate, culturally sensitive interpretation coverage across more touchpoints in the healthcare journey for patients with limited English proficiency,” says Dipak Patel, Globo’s CEO. “At the end of the day, it’s about building trust. When patients feel understood, they are more likely to follow care instructions, which ultimately leads to better health outcomes.”
More than 160 professionals worldwide participated in the Stevie Awards judging process to select this year’s honorees.
“We’re proud to honor the 2025 Stevie Awards for Technology Excellence winners for their remarkable achievements,” says Stevie Awards President Maggie Miller. “We look forward to celebrating their innovation and impact at the awards ceremony on September 16.”
