Zurich, Switzerland, April, 30, 2025 - As AI continues to reshape industries around the world, the interpreting sector is undergoing a profound transformation. On May 6, 2025, Interprefy CEO Oddmund Braaten will take the virtual stage at ELEVATE 2025, joining a panel of industry leaders to explore the evolving role of artificial intelligence in multilingual communication.
The future of AI in interpretation and live multilingual meetings
The panel, titled "The future of interpreting in an AI-driven world," aims to unpack the growing influence of AI speech translation tools on live interpretation, multilingual meetings, and the people who power them. As the adoption of automated solutions accelerates, many event organisers, language service providers, and interpreters are left asking the same critical question: what does this mean for us?
Oddmund Braaten will contribute Interprefy’s perspective to the conversation — one shaped by more than a decade of innovation at the intersection of technology and language access.
🗓️ Session Date: May 6, 2025
🕓 Time: 4:00 PM – 4:45 PM CET
💻 Format: Virtual panel session
🎟️ Registration: ELEVATE 2025 is free and open to the public
AI opens up new possibilities in interpretation, but it also raises new questions. Our focus at Interprefy is on helping organisations make informed, responsible choices — using technology where it makes sense, and ensuring that human insight remains central to multilingual communication.
— Oddmund Braaten, CEO, Interprefy
Interprefy’s approach: AI translation that supports human expertise
At Interprefy, we’ve always believed that great multilingual experiences come from technology that supports people — not replaces them. That’s why we continue to lead the industry in offering flexible, scalable solutions that combine AI-powered speech translation with professional interpretation, depending on your needs.
Oddmund will share our approach to multilingual meetings that prioritize:
-
Accessibility: ensuring everyone can participate, no matter the language
-
Scalability: adapting to the needs of any event, from webinars to global summits
-
Quality and reliability: delivering consistent, professional results, every time
At Interprefy, we’re not choosing between AI and human interpreters—we’re integrating them. It’s about matching the right solution to the right moment.
