Kansas City Business Journal Champions of Business Award

Ingram’s 50 Kansans You Should Know
Ingram’s Magazine, the leading business publication in Kansas and Missouri for over 45 years, released its 50 Kansas You Should Know, and we are thrilled to share that Propio CEO, Marco Assis, has made the list. Ingram’s 50 Kansas You Should Know recognizes Kansans that push the state’s economy forward and in doing so elevate the quality of life for nearly 3 million residents.
After such an exciting couple of years, this isn’t the first local recognition Propio has been honored to receive. In 2022, Propio received a NOVA award from the Overland Park Economic Development Council for the record-breaking growth we achieved last year. The importance of these awards and listings is not lost on all of us at Propio — the local support, encouragement, and friendship of these organizations are integral to our success, and we are grateful to base our operations in this incredible part of the country.
Leader in the Medical Language Services Industry
Propio has been added to the 2023 Slator Language Service Provider Index.

By publishing research, resources, articles, and many other services, Slator is one of the foremost authorities in the language services industry.
Slator Language Service Provider Award
In Slator’s own words,
“The Slator Language Service Provider Index (LSPI) is a ranking and an index of the world’s largest translation, localization, interpreting, and language technology companies.” Additionally, “The Slator LSPI contains 2022 and 2021 revenues (in USD) for each company as well as percentage growth, which is based on the original reporting currency. Commentary on 2022 performance data and organizational changes for each LSPI Super Agency and Leader is provided in the expanded records.”
Propio LS Recognized As Global Leader in Language Services
Continuing to improve our ranking on the Slator list will not only increase Propio’s visibility in the global language services landscape, but it also establishes us as a leader in our field. This is a prestigious honor, and we look forward to the extended reach it will provide.
According to CEO Marco Assis, “Propio climbed 24 spots in 2021 and we are very excited for what’s to come. This is a great reflection of the hard work we’ve put in and commitment to our unique value proposition to clients. We look forward to accelerating our growth even further and reaching even higher on the list again next year.”
In 2021, Propio advanced from number 76 on the index to number 43, and now in 2023 we’ve hit number 19, an achievement that could not have happened without the excellent quality of service our interpreters and staff provide. Propio’s placement on the Slator index is a fantastic indicator of this company’s bright future in the language services industry.

Why US Businesses Trust Propio LS
Proprietary Technology
One of many important factors in this growth is the development and implementation of Propio’s proprietary technology, specifically the Propio ONE app. The launch of this proprietary mobile app system gave users access to over 5,000 interpreters for audio or video, and access to on-demand and scheduled interpretation services at the touch of a button. The technological growth doesn’t stop with Propio ONE, however. Propio CONNECT, Propio ECHO, and an upgraded proprietary call routing system all combined to drive Propio forward.
Acquisition and Investment
The past two years have also been striking in terms of acquisitions and investment, with Propio acquiring multiple high-profile players in the language services industry: Vocalink Global, ARCH, Intelligere, Telelanguage, and LSP Ware. By integrating the high-caliber services of these companies with what we’ve built here at Propio, we are pleased to be able to expand our offerings without sacrificing quality.
