Founders of BAIGAL translation agency
Founders of BAIGAL Translations

The founders of our translation agency, M. Sabikhan and L.A. Sikhayeva, have been working professionally since 2003 and have many years of experience at the international and government level.

In 2009 they founded a full-scale agency that brought together a team of qualified translators. One of the founders has extensive experience in simultaneous and consecutive interpreting at high-level events, including meetings with the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, intergovernmental commissions, international forums and conferences.

Today our agency works with Kazakhstani and foreign companies on large-scale projects in technical, legal, medical and business translation. The founders personally oversee quality, deadlines and confidentiality.

The long professional experience of our leaders and a team of proven specialists allow us to successfully deliver complex multilingual projects. Our core value is the founders’ personal responsibility for the quality of every project and the trust of our clients.
