Question 1

When do I need a professional interpreter?

Accepted Answer

When communication is critical and there's little room for error: international congresses, corporate negotiations, legal proceedings, institutional events, or any event with participants speaking different languages.

Professional interpreting requires specific training in booth technique, note-taking, pressure management, and specialized terminology. Fluency in two languages isn't enough.

A terminology error at a pharmaceutical congress, an inaccuracy in a legal proceeding, or a misunderstanding in a negotiation can have consequences that go far beyond the cost of the assignment.

Not sure if your event needs professional interpreting? Tell me the format and I'll advise you.

Question 2

How much does it cost to hire a conference interpreter?

Accepted Answer

Rates vary depending on the format (simultaneous, consecutive, or RSI), duration, sector, and whether the event is on-site, remote, or hybrid. There's no single price — every assignment has its own technical and logistical needs.

Tell me about your event and I'll send you a personalized quote within 24 hours.

Question 3

What is RSI and what kind of events is it suited for?

Accepted Answer

RSI (Remote Simultaneous Interpretation) is simultaneous interpreting delivered remotely. The interpreter works from a professional studio and participants listen in their own language through specialized platforms such as Interprefy, KUDO or Interactio — no physical booths, no travel, no geographic limitations.

It's the standard format for online and hybrid events, international meetings, and any format where participants are in different locations.

I'm a certified Interprefy interpreter (Feb. 2025) with experience in RSI and hybrid events for clients in Spain, the UK, and internationally.

Question 4

How do you guarantee confidentiality?

Accepted Answer

Confidentiality is a matter of professional ethics, not an option.

My practice follows the AIIC Code of Ethics (Art. 2): absolute professional secrecy over all assignment content — speeches, discussions, documents and strategic data — with no exceptions and no time limit.

I sign confidentiality agreements (NDAs) tailored to each client and sector before the assignment begins. I operate in compliance with GDPR (EU) 2016/679.

For remote events: secure connections, certified platforms, and no recording of content unless explicitly instructed by the client.

Do you have specific confidentiality requirements? Get in touch before hiring.

Question 5

Do you work outside Barcelona?

Accepted Answer

Yes. On-site throughout Spain and Europe. Remotely, internationally.

For on-site events, I recommend getting in touch at least 2–4 weeks in advance. For remote events, availability is more flexible.

Question 6

Do you also work with individuals?

Accepted Answer

Yes. While most of my work is with companies, institutions and public bodies, I also help individuals — with translation of official and personal documents, and with adapting your professional profile (CV, LinkedIn, social media) into another language. Tell me what you need and I'll let you know if I can help.
