Traditional face-to-face meetings are fading into the background, especially after the experience brought about by the pandemic, and it has become normal for attendees to participate from different locations. Video conferences, webinars and streamed meetings have now come to the forefront and obliged the interpreting industry to adapt to these new modes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It used to be normal for interpreter booths to be located in the same room where the meetings were being held. Now, the development of <strong>new technologies<\/strong> has made it possible to perfect simultaneous interpreting systems based on web-based remote audio and video communication.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpsl.com\/en-GB\/services\/remote-rit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">remote interpreting<\/a> services are the perfect vehicle for multilingual events, with latest-generation technology that can be easily operated through an app\/web link by our clients on a mobile device, which then becomes a receiver for the interpretation through different channels for each language.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Our Remote Interpreting Technology (RIT) app is available for our clients on both the iOS and Android platforms:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/es\/app\/cpsl-rit\/id1400205700\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/es\/app\/cpsl-rit\/id1400205700<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.customia.cpsl&amp;hl=en&amp;gl=US\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.customia.cpsl&amp;hl=en&amp;gl=US<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What are the advantages of working remotely?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">They are many and varied:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">The costs related to holding an event evaporate.

The types of events where its role is growing are quite varied:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Virtual <strong>press conferences<\/strong> in which the participants are physically located in different places. This applies to workshops and all types of presentations of an international nature, for the clients themselves or for third parties.<\/li>\n<li>Online <strong>training courses<\/strong>. Thanks to this technology, training can be received anywhere in the world.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Multilingual webinars<\/strong> that companies may hold for training purposes, aimed at sales, training, marketing and other departments. Here, once again, the virtual aspect is what makes the event feasible.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Trade fairs<\/strong>. At the moment, trade fairs can only be held virtually, making remote <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpsl.com\/en-GB\/service\/interpreting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">interpreting services<\/a> essential for a fair to be international.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Multilingual events<\/strong>. These may be events held by third parties or a company&#8217;s own events. Virtual event platforms can also benefit from this technology.<\/li>\n<li><strong>European Working Councils<\/strong> (EWC). This is another scenario in which remote simultaneous interpretation can play a key role.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What is CPSL\u2019s value proposition?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At CPSL, we have been committed to supplying multilingual solutions and adapting quickly to the changing needs of our clients all over the world for over 60 years. Today, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpsl.com\/en-GB\/deconstructing-remote-interpreting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">remote simultaneous interpreting services (RIT)<\/a> have taken on a leading role, making it one of CPSL\u2019s top services.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Our interpreters are able to work remotely at virtual events or events with restrictions, as they are currently doing due to COVID\u201119. When the context allows it and the client requires it, we can supply up to 12 interpretating booths &#8211; fully equipped according to ISO2603:4043 &#8211; to provide interpreters with an optimal working environment. In the case of hybrid events, our specialists will provide you with the necessary technical services at the event location.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>How do we work remotely?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We\u2019ve talked about a series of competitive advantages, but, without a doubt, the main advantage is the possibility of integrating our RIT services<strong> into any videoconferencing software\/system, whether this be Zoom or another platform<\/strong> like Teams, Webbex, Skype, GotoMeeting, GotoWebinar, etc.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-22373 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cpsl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Platforms-300x55.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"398\" height=\"73\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cpsl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Platforms-300x55.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cpsl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Platforms-scaled.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cpsl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Platforms-768x141.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 398px) 100vw, 398px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These are user-friendly, highly intuitive and customizable platforms that offer optimal service to our clients and are very easy for both our interpreters and participants to operate.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Zoom is perhaps the best known platform at the moment. It\u2019s a very simple cloud-based tool that has become the market leader for both video conferences and audio conferences. CPSL collaborates with Zoom to enable simultaneous interpretation channels to be integrated into the platform. This substantially improves the functionality, as it provides us with a wide variety of streaming options.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Do you need to organize a virtual multilingual event? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">CPSL can help you to organize meetings with up to 50 parallel sessions, and the administrator can rotate through each session. Each participant has complete audio, video and screen-sharing capabilities and can also access the chat, hand-raising and survey options and the simultaneous interpreting channels, for example. In this way, CPSL\u2019s RIT becomes the perfect ally for ensuring that your message is heard loud and clear at any of your multilingual events.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>By taking advantage of remote interpreting technology (RIT), you will ensure that your next international conference is a success.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpsl.com\/en-GB\/thank-you-for-your-interest-in-rit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Contact us<\/a> for more information and request a demonstration!<\/strong><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We live in a constantly changing world in which our needs are setting the agenda and technology is providing us with the answers.
