Simultaneous interpretation for conferences and congresses

At an international conference, simultaneous interpretation is the invisible infrastructure that holds everything together: every participant listens in their own language, in real time, and the programme flows without the pauses of consecutive interpreting. We provide complete Bosch systems and professional interpreters for conferences and congresses from 50 to over 1,000 participants, with up to 32 language channels simultaneously.

How it works

We install soundproof booths built to ISO standards — discreet, with a direct view of the stage or via monitor — from which the interpreters work in real time. The signal reaches the participants' headset receivers digitally, via infrared; everyone picks their own language channel. For congresses with debates, we combine interpretation with Bosch Dicentis conference units: a microphone for every delegate, an automatically managed speaker list, and interventions from the floor interpreted as smoothly as the presentations on stage.

For multilingual events we routinely run 5–6 booths in the same room, and the Bosch systems support up to 32 language channels simultaneously. For remote participants we also stream online simultaneous interpretation, via Zoom, Webex or Teams.

What we include

  • Soundproof interpretation booths built to ISO standards, discreetly installed and integrated into the room
  • Professional conference interpreters, two per language, experienced in the field of your event
  • Infrared receivers with headphones for participants (50+, expandable to over 1,000)
  • Bosch Dicentis / DCN conference units for debates and plenary sessions, if needed
  • A dedicated technician next to the interpreters throughout the event and redundancy on critical equipment
  • Integration with the rest of the production — sound, LED screen, live streaming — from the same team: all the equipment for conferences

Frequently asked questions

Up to 32 language channels simultaneously, with separate booths and interpreter teams for each language. The typical setup for international congresses is 2–4 languages.

Simultaneous interpretation demands a level of concentration that cannot be sustained continuously — interpreters switch every 20–30 minutes, in line with international practice. That is how quality stays constant from morning to evening.

Roughly 2×2 m per booth, preferably with a view of the stage, and a power socket nearby — we bring everything else. Where space doesn't allow it, we use tabletop booths or set the booth up in an adjacent room, with a monitor.
