Conferences are a popular way for businesses in the same industry to connect and promote their services. In fact, there are over a million business events held in the UK which are attended by 85 million people each year. As the number of conferences held every year expands, the global need for conference interpreting services increases.
For a translation company like Absolute Translations, we are able to provide high-quality interpreting services for a wide range of industries and sectors including finance, marketing and medicine. No matter what the subject matter, our conference interpreting services make it easier for your business to communicate with an audience that speaks a different language. We understand that selecting the right conference interpreting services can be difficult. That’s why we have created this guide from our expert interpreters.
There are many types of conference interpreting services available to our clients:
Simultaneous interpreting is the most common form of interpreting but it is also the most difficult. As a result, an experienced interpreter is needed to perform this type of interpreting. They are required to translate what is being said and repeat it to the audience while the speaker is still talking. This method is most effective during presentations and conferences where there is a huge audience.
Meanwhile, consecutive interpretation is better suited to conferences with smaller audiences such as legal hearings and press interviews. The speaker will pause after speaking and then the interpreter will repeat it back to the audience.
If you’re hosting an online conference, you may also want to consider video or telephone interpreting. These interpretation methods are quick, easy and affordable ways to meet your immediate interpreting needs. With over 200 language combinations available, our virtual interpreting is an on-demand service which helps you connect with your audience via your phone or video call.
A whisper interpreter will sit with delegates or panel speakers and quietly whisper questions or comments in their ear. This type of interpreting is useful when only a few speakers require interpretation.
Here at Absolute Translations, we understand that hosting a conference can be extremely expensive. As a result, the budget for interpreting is likely to be limited. When you receive a quote from us, you will get a comprehensive package price that covers everything. Our package price quote will include the cost of travel, interpreter expenses and the time of interpreting so you have no hidden surprises at the end, making our services are some of the most cost-effective out there.
