Translation and interpreting are often confused with one another. Translation is the rendition of a written text from one language to another (e.g. rendition of your English brochure into French). Interpreting is the rendering of spoken words from one language to another (e.g. your speech being interpreted from Spanish into English to an English-speaking audience).

It will depend on the length of your event and the interpreting mode. For simultaneous interpreting, as it involves intense concentration levels, interpreters work in teams of two, alternating every 20 to 30 minutes. You would therefore require a team of two interpreters working into and out of each language combination. For other interpreting modes, one interpreter may be required. Please contact us directly to find out which mode suits your project.
