History
CyraCom was originally founded as Kevmark Industries in 1995 by Kevin J. Carey and Mark Myers.[3][4][5] Myers and co-founder Kevin Carey built a prototype with two handsets connected to a single base, allowing both patients and providers to speak to an interpreter on a three-way call without passing a handset back and forth.[6] The device later became known as the CyraPhone.[7]
The company name was changed to CyraCom in 1997, named for Edmond Rostand's Cyrano de Bergerac.[6] It operates call centers and offices in the United States with one office in the United Kingdom, and another in Costa Rica. Cyracom provides interpreters for hundreds of languages.[8][9]
CyraCom acquired Washington, D.C. based Language Learning Enterprises in January 2010.[10]
