What happens when not everyone speaks the same language in your Microsoft Teams meeting? That’s where interpretation and live translation solutions like remote simultaneous interpretation, AI-powered speech translation, live AI captions and subtitles come in.

Microsoft Teams has come a long way in supporting multilingual meetings. But for many meeting organisers, those built-in features still don’t go far enough. And when clarity, speed, and accessibility matter most, that’s where Interprefy steps in. We offer the same powerful language support for Teams as we do across other major platforms. 

There’s a lot of talk about AI in interpretation right now. Some of it is exciting. Some of it creates confusion.

Speech technology has come a long way. We’re seeing real-time captions, multilingual voiceovers, and live translation become more common. But somewhere along the way, people started to assume that AI can handle everything — even interpretation.

Planning an event that runs smoothly is already a big job. Throw in multiple languages, hybrid attendance, and tight timelines, and it gets a lot trickier.

We get it. You want everyone at your event — whether they’re in the room or joining online — to feel included and able to follow along. But traditional interpretation setups aren’t designed for today’s formats. Many times they’re costly, complicated, and don’t always fit with your tools or timeline.

The good news is, there’s a better way. More and more organisers are turning to flexible solutions that support multilingual communication without piling on extra stress or equipment. And they’re seeing results: simpler setups, smoother experiences, and events that work better for everyone.

This guide walks through how to make that shift — so you can plan events that reach more people, work across languages, and still feel easy to run.

Imagine turning on your television and being greeted by a wall of sound, unintelligible and inaccessible. For millions of people with hearing impairments, this is a daily reality. But what if broadcasting could be different? What if every story, every news bulletin, every captivating drama was available to everyone, regardless of their hearing ability? This isn't just a utopian dream; it's the driving force behind the European Accessibility Act (EAA), a landmark piece of legislation set to reshape broadcasting in 2025. This Act isn't just about ticking boxes; it's about fostering inclusivity, expanding audiences, and ultimately, making broadcasting truly accessible.

In today’s world, where most events are global and multilingual, ensuring that everyone can follow along is a must. Whether you’re hosting a global conference, managing a corporate town hall, or running a live-streamed webinar, close captions and subtitles are no longer something you can overlook. They are the key to making your message clear, inclusive, and impactful.

Every January, as Q1 begins, businesses around the world set ambitious goals and dive into a bustling event season with renewed energy. The start of the year is often packed with activities, from product launches to press conferences, as organisations strive to set the tone for the year ahead.

At Interprefy, we’ve been helping businesses and organisations worldwide overcome this obstacle. Here’s how you can use AI-powered live translation and captions to make your events more inclusive and accessible.
