Simultaneous interpretation for press conferences

At a press conference with foreign guests, the message must reach the journalists immediately and unambiguously — there is no second chance. Simultaneous interpretation removes the pauses of consecutive interpreting and keeps the conference at the fast pace the press demands.

FITS press conference with journalists — technical setup and interpretation provided by ACSB Events

How it works

We install the system before the event: a booth or portable equipment for the interpreter, receivers with headphones for the journalists and — essential for the press — a separate audio feed with the interpretation, which TV stations can take directly into their broadcast vans or streams. The speaker delivers the statement in their own language; each journalist listens in the language of their choice and can ask questions through the interpreter.

What we include

  • Interpreters experienced in media events and official statements
  • Infrared receivers with headphones for journalists (up to 50, expandable)
  • Dedicated audio feed for TV, radio and livestream (XLR / stream outputs)
  • Full sound reinforcement for the room: lectern microphones, head table, wireless microphones for questions
  • Fast installation — setup ready in 1–2 hours — and a technician present for the entire duration

Why ACSB Events

We have provided simultaneous interpretation for events with high public exposure, including the Sibiu International Theatre Festival. We know the pressure of a live event: equipment redundancy, a technician next to the interpreter and feeds tested with the TV broadcast vans before the start.
