Interpreting
Are you planning an event with international participants involving several languages?
I can gladly advise you on the right type of interpreting that you need:
Simultaneous interpreting
During simultaneous interpreting, the interpreters work in a soundproof booth and speak at the same time as the speaker. Listeners hear the interpretation via headphones and can follow the event in real-time. Simultaneous interpreters always work in a team of at least two.
Remote interpreting
Remote interpreting is used for multilingual video conferences or online events. The interpreters work from an interpreting hub equipped with professional conference technology or on site with the customer.
Consecutive interpreting
For consecutive interpreting the interpreter speaks after the speaker has spoken without using technical equipment. This type of interpreting takes about twice as long as simultaneous interpreting. It is used mainly for official occasions such as addresses or dinner speeches and meetings on a smaller scale, and usually only for one language combination.
Service
I can gladly assist you with your international projects and offer a full range of interpreting services.
Please contact me for advice about putting a team of interpreters together for your international event. I can also be of assistance when it comes to choosing the right interpreting equipment – for smooth communication.
Interpreter teams
My extensive career experience gives me access to a network of professional colleagues. I can gladly help you assemble a team of interpreters to meet your requirements. Besides the interpreters’ working languages, it is important that they specialise in the respective field for your event – so you understand more!
Interpreting equipment
I can also be of assistance in choosing the necessary technical equipment. On request, I can recommend professional conference equipment providers whom I have worked with for many years.
