Here are several ways to translate "Roteiro diferenciado" into English, depending on the context and desired nuance: **Common and Versatile:** * **Unique itinerary:** This is a very common and natural translation, implying distinctiveness and originality. * **Differentiated itinerary:** This is a more direct translation, often used in business or marketing contexts to highlight a unique selling proposition. * **Distinctive itinerary:** Similar to "unique," emphasizing a noticeable difference. **More Descriptive (depending on what makes it "diferenciado"):** * **Special itinerary:** Implies it's not ordinary or standard. * **Tailored itinerary:** If it's customized for specific needs or preferences. * **Customized itinerary:** Same as tailored. * **Innovative itinerary:** If it features new approaches or ideas. * **Creative itinerary:** If it shows imagination and originality. **When referring to a script for a film, play, etc.:** * **Unique script** * **Differentiated script** * **Distinctive script** * **Original script** **When choosing, consider:** * **What is being differentiated?** Is it the route, the experiences, the approach? * **Who is the target audience?** Is it for a general audience or a more specialized one? * **What is the overall tone?** Is it formal, informal, promotional? Without more context, **"Unique itinerary"** or **"Differentiated itinerary"** are generally safe and accurate choices.
The Delegation begins its program with an opening meeting at Google's New York office, one of the most innovative corporate environments in the world. The meeting will be led by a company representative who will share insights on technology, consumer behavior, innovation, and the movements shaping the future of global retail.
The choice of Google as a starting point reinforces the delegation's premium positioning, establishing from day one a high-level experience focused on provoking new perspectives, stimulating strategic connections, and expanding the executives' repertoire even before the official start of NRF.
