Simultaneous interpretation
Simultaneous interpretation is performed live while the speaker is speaking, allowing the message to be conveyed at the same time in as many target languages as required.
Remote simultaneous interpretation (RSI) is often the best interpreting solution for remote, hybrid and even for in-person events, as it offers more flexibility and helps to reduce costs.
Consecutive interpretation
The interpreter listens to the speaker while taking notes and reproduces the speech into the target language, after the speaker has finished speaking. Being more time-consuming than simultaneous interpreting, consecutive interpretation is generally used in specific settings where only one language pair is involved – for example site visits, audits and bilateral negotiations.
Sign language interpreting
Sign language interpreting translates spoken language to sign language and vice versa, in-person or over-video communication. By facilitating meaningful communication with the deaf and hard-of-hearing communities, you’re ensuring that everyone connected with your business feels respected, listened to, and receives the best level of service.

Managing communication with an interpreter on location
Interpreting for face-to-face communication is more than just translating words. It’s also about building mutual respect and bridging cultures to ensure a clear and precise transmission of the message of the speakers; non-verbal communication plays a key role in the communication process. For complex or sensitive conversations in particular, having an interpreter on-site can bring a clear added value.
