Can Online Meeting and Conference Interpreter Services Save Live Events?

Can online meeting and conference interpreter services save the B2B and B2C events industry? At present, it’s not just major entertainment and sporting events that are being put on the COVID-19 chopping block. As well as these, major B2B and B2C events like CES 2021 have recently been canceled

Thankfully, not all event organizers are canceling events completely. Instead, some are turning to online meeting and conference interpreter services to help them host events virtually. 

 
How Online Meeting and Conference Interpreter Services Work 

In theory, any event where there is a high-speed Internet connection available can be held virtually. However, B2B and B2C events typically draw attendees from around the world.

For businesses, the fact that B2B and B2C events attract large multilingual crowds makes it harder to host events virtually. However, this needn’t be the case. 

At Languagers, our online conference meeting interpreter services can help you interpret virtual conferences and events in real-time to any number of event attendees.

  • At Languagers, we can provide Remote Simultaneous interpretation (RSI) services for virtual conferences and meetings. This is where interpreters interpret what conference speakers say in real-time
  • If you are hosting a web conference or meeting, our team at Languagers can connect you with interpreters of 350 different languages within 24-hours
  • Our team at Languagers can provide remote simultaneous interpreting for any online event, conference, webinar, webcast, or meeting

What Kind of Events Can Be Held Virtually? 

As a rule, any event can be held virtually.  

  • On September 24th this year, the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will be holding a virtual open house with city residents to discuss planned upgrades to underground utility services
  • During the September 24th event, the MDOT plans to make interpreters available for both non-native English-speaking residents and Michigan residents with hearing impairments
  • On September 18th this year, the Greater Mount Airy Chamber of Commerce in North Carolina will likewise hold its annual Excellence in Business Awards virtually
  • On the 5th of October this year Seatrade Cruise Virtual, the largest gathering of global cruise industry partners will take place virtually in Colchester, England

There are also several benefits of holding conferences, B2B events, and other events virtually.

  • Holding conferences and events virtually allows businesses to stay connected with consumers and industry partners
  • Virtual events (even when investing in interpretation services), can be hosted for a fraction of the cost of real-world events
  • Hosting virtual events allows businesses to get instant feedback from consumers and industry partners
