Case Study: Simultaneous Interpretation in a Hybrid Format for Big Wines
Big Wines, one of Ukraine’s leading wine importers and producers, organized a panel discussion as part of the Wine & Spirits Academy. The event gathered wine culture experts, medical professionals, psychologists, and winemakers. The main topic focused on responsible wine consumption in modern Ukrainian realities.
Initially, the client approached KLS Translation Agency requesting consecutive interpretation.
After reviewing the event format, we recommended a more suitable option - simultaneous interpretation in Zoom, which allows:
- no pauses between speakers;
- smooth, uninterrupted discussion flow;
- natural transitions between panelists;
- a better experience for international participants.
Event Format
- Venue: Parkovy Convention and Exhibition Center
- Type: hybrid event
- Interpretation: simultaneous
- Interpreter team: working remotely via Zoom
- Topic: winemaking, responsible consumption, culture of moderation
Discussion Topics
The panel was part of the international initiative Wine in Moderation, promoting responsible wine consumption.
Key discussion points included:
- the role of winemakers, doctors, and psychologists in promoting moderation;
- the impact of responsible consumption on the wine market;
- wine culture in Ukraine’s current context;
- balancing enjoyment with conscious consumption.
Why KLS Recommended Simultaneous Interpretation
Consecutive interpretation would have significantly slowed the discussion and increased time per speaker.
Simultaneous interpretation:
- delivers content instantly;
- supports real-time engagement;
- is ideal for hybrid events;
- ensures comfort for speakers and attendees.
KLS interpreters joined the event remotely via Zoom, working synchronously with the onsite technical team. This ensured stable communication and an efficient workflow.
Result
The event was successful.
The client shared positive feedback:
“Everything went well, everyone is satisfied.”
This project demonstrates how correctly chosen interpretation format enhances communication and elevates participant experience.
