Remote Simeoutaneous Interpreting For Conference Holiday Showcase
The Opportunity

Expanding Information Access for Association Forum

Known as the "Association of Associations," Association Forum represents nearly 50,000 association professionals across the Chicagoland area. To connect with their diverse member base, they needed to translate critical resources and events in multiple languages.


The Challenge

To strengthen engagement and accessibility, Association Forum sought a localization partner capable of delivering live Spanish interpreting, captioning, and professional document translation. They needed a solution that would ensure multilingual accessibility for key events like the Holiday Showcase and maintain brand integrity in FORUM Magazine, reinforcing their commitment to inclusivity across all communications.

Ensure Event Accessibility: Provide live Spanish interpreting and Spanish/English captions at key association gatherings, including Holiday Showcase.

Support Diverse Members: Translate critical association materials, including FORUM Magazine content, to reflect their values in multiple languages.

Maintain Brand & Message Integrity: Ensure translations uphold the organization's voice, mission, and commitment to inclusivity.

The Results

Interpro has been Association Forum's go-to partner since 2018, delivering seamless translation and interpreting solutions. Forum trusted Interpro to ensure multilingual accessibility for key events and informational publications. All of Interpro’s work helped with reinforcing their commitment to inclusive communications.

Translating our organization's core values into multiple languages for issues of FORUM Magazine has been a powerful step in making those words accessible to all members of our community. The precision and care in the translations ensure every reader can see themselves reflected in our shared vision. This initiative reinforced our commitment to inclusivity and resonates on every page of our publication."

Written (translation) vs. spoken (interpreting) is the key distinction.

Translation deals with written content. Think documents, websites, manuals, and marketing materials.

Interpretation is spoken in real-time. It’s used in meetings, events, training sessions, and more.

At Interpro, we offer both, always delivered by specialized linguists who understand your industry, audience, and goals.
