Our team of conference interpreters are members of the AIIC (International Association of Conference Interpreters)
SPALVIER has an excellent team of conference interpreters with ample professional experience in the most diverse sectors.
In the words of the AIIC, an interpreter is:
A professional in multilingual communication. In conferences, conversations and seminars, he or she interprets simultaneously. In negotiations, formal visits and press conferences he or she tends to interpret consecutively. The essential goal is that the participants understand each other while speaking different languages.
The conference interpreter must always rise to the circumstances and know how to deal with any topic, idiom or accent. He engages in a difficult profession and one of great responsibility that demands qualities such as physical and psychological strength, versatility and diplomacy.
The interpreter has completed a program of university studies specializing in conference interpreting. He must master the languages he works in to the point of perfection and have ample cultural knowledge.
Before the meeting, the interpreter prepares the topic and terminology. It is crucial that the organiser provide ahead of time any documents, reference material or texts that will be read or cited. Direct contact with the team of interpreters speeds up the process.
