Successful Virtual Meetings or Webinars Requires More Than Just a Robust Tech Platform

With a Ph.D. in Computer Engineering and research experience of over 15 years, Dr. Bernard Song has also been a consultant interpreter for the past decade, working with various SI equipment providers and professional interpreters across the world.

With Covid-19 sparking a global work-from-home experiment, clients and interpreters are turning to Remote Simultaneous Interpretation (RSI) platform solutions to ensure business continuation. Right from the beginning of the pandemic, Dr. Song has been working closely with his team and clients to work out the best possible arrangements to carry out their previously planned conferences and meetings, despite the disruptions caused by Covid-19.

For the foreseeable future, even with the vaccination coming into place, hybrid events are probably the most feasible option, which allows clients to reach as many audiences as possible, with all sorts of factors into consideration, such as higher hygiene standards, social distancing, travel restrictions.

Most of us felt like we have been forced into this new normal of Covid-19, but it is important to note that with remote interpreting services, for the first time, we are able to help clients to slash costs by up to 50% as all the physical set-ups, equipment, manpower and traveling costs are not in the picture anymore.

Hybrid or online events may as well be the new normal or even a much better way to organize conferences and meetings in the future. Lower costs, zero travel, low maintenance, access to the best available interpreters. Just connect and go.

Feasibility of the Remote Interpretation Platform

Remote interpreting services are now a smart solution given its feasibility amidst the technological revolution. With the advent of state-of-the-art Cloud and real-time transmission technology, smartphones and other BYOD devices corroborate enterprise-level migration of their applications to the Cloud efficiently. However, there are still several factors to consider in order to organise a successful virtual event on RSI platforms, such as managing a client’s expectation.

An effective RSI expert can help you identify the most cost-efficient solution to your event, plan your project appropriately, and most importantly, familiarise you with the whole RSI operation workflow. When our services are engaged, extensive measures are taken to avoid human errors and other possible issues to ensure a frictionless experience.

Seek Counsel of an RSI Expert

Dr Bernard Song and his team offer comprehensive remote interpreting services, removing language barriers wherever the audience may be.

Backed by years of expertise, we aim to have clients understand that using an RSI platform requires more than the simple registration of an account and getting everybody to sign in. You need to be well equipped with information, such as cost, scale, the geographical coverage of the audience, adjacency of interpreters, and time zones. Be it an audio meeting or a video conference, the mode of remote interpreting, although flexible and scalable, requires detailed execution for a flawless event. Not all RSI platforms are created equal. Those who learn about the various platforms by hearsay may risk being misled. The lack of fair comparative evaluation and knowledge on technological differences between platforms may expose clients to blind spots after a decision is made.

Therefore, to ensure that you get the right platform, it is best to speak to an expert on RSI-platform technologies and interpretation to get an impartial evaluation and a technical deep dive based on your requirements, so that you can find the best-fit solution.

Testimonial

He is one of the most talented I have ever seen being such a successful simultaneous interpreter and translator at such a young age. Dr. Song is also an outstanding professional interpreter with over 8 years’ experience in scientific, engineering, finance, marketing and general translations. He has helped me with some article translations occasionally, and last year he translated my book Every Family which I am very satisfied with. Besides, he is always an optimistic, helpful person with his own dreams. And I wish him all the best as a successful conference interpreter and translator.

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, Forum had to make a swift decision to move our workshop online and deliver it through a webinar. The content of the workshop was somewhat technical, and the audience mainly used Mandarin as a first language. We engaged the help of Bernard, who provided Forum with remote simultaneous interpretation (RSI) service. Bernard and his colleagues were truly professional. With a short turnaround time, he and his team were able to grasp the technical content and deliver without missing the intention of the message, which is often the biggest challenge in interpretation. Bernard also has fantastic IT skills and supported us with the webinar test run and set up, making the whole process a lot less stressful, allowing us to focus on content delivery. His vast experience as a consultant interpreter, together with his technical knowledge and hands-on experience in remote simultaneous interpretation service, would benefit any organisation looking to do a multi-language webinar.

Dr. Song has been working with us for the past decade, providing multi-language interpreter teams for our high-level conferences and events. In addition to a top-notch interpreter himself, he also has a good eye selecting the right mix of interpreters in different languages based on our event requirements and budget needs. He has also given us tremendous help in advising the right setup and using the appropriate remote simultaneous interpretation (RSI) platforms this year during the pandemic, which navigates us through the unchartered waters and delivers a successful event.
