---

We are pleased to announce that our ‘Live Translation’ service was implemented at the Japan Energy Summit 2024 held at Tokyo Big Sight, in collaboration with dmg events (Headquarters: UAE) and Pivot Tokyo Corporation (Headquarters: Shibuya, Tokyo).

◯Case Summary

Usage of the service at the seminar venue.

◯Challenges and Background

• While we aim to reduce interpreting costs, the absence of interpreters makes it difficult to comprehend the content.
• In addition to language adaptation for the host country, attendees wish to understand the content in their native languages.
• To ensure nothing is missed, visual confirmation of the spoken content is also desired.
• Participants need time to take notes.
• Without knowing the speaker’s language in advance, it is challenging to prepare and secure interpreters.

◯Outcomes

• The original speech and its translations can be viewed in real-time on the installed monitors.
• Individuals can verify the content of the speech in their native languages in real-time on their personal devices.
• Utilizing the text-to-speech feature on their devices, participants can listen to the speech in their headphones as if it were being conducted in their native language.
• As the speech is transcribed into text, participants can review the content, which allows time for note-taking.
