Our services
Albion’s executive partner, Rebecca Atkinson, coordinates all the interpreting services, facilitating the communication with the event organiser to assure a service of the highest quality. We draw on the collaboration of a large network of freelance professionals, who we handpick according to the experience required for the event.
Simultaneous interpreting
Most international events these days make use of simultaneous interpreting, which is when the interpreters sit in a sound-proof booth and the translation is transmitted to the headsets used by the members of the audience.
Consecutive interpreting
For short presentations, press conferences and closed meetings, consecutive interpreting is an option, which is when the interlocutors and the interpreter speak one after the other.
Whispered interpreting
When just one or two people in a given situation do not understand the language being used, the interpreter can whisper the translation. The person hears the translation simultaneously, but without using a headset.
Liaison interpreting
If you are making a business or tourist trip, you can hire a professional to provide escort interpreting, which is when the communication between the parties is mediated without the use of equipment.
