PUMed is a restricted union of the Universal Postal Union (UPU). Established in 1874, the Universal Postal Union (UPU), with its headquarters in the Swiss capital Berne, is the second oldest international organization worldwide. Today, PUMed counts up to 21 member organizations. **We have received very positive feedback from delegates, who were impressed with the level of interpreting and the clarity of sound. - Elisabeth Massonnet, Deputy director, UPU #### The Challenge ## Provide Interpreting Services for an international conference PUMed Union holds regular conferences for its members to discuss best practices and areas for greater collaboration. At the invitation of the French Post and with delegates attending from Europe and the Middle East, its event in June 2019 was held in Marseille, France. “Interpreting is essential for our meetings, which are interactive and inclusive,” says Elisabeth Massonnet, deputy director, in charge of UPU and restricted unions at the French Post. “However, using traditional interpreting has been complex and expensive. We also have limited floorspace in this venue. For these reasons, we looked for an alternate set up using remote simultaneous interpretation.” #### The Approach ## Using S-Box with onsite and offsite support The meeting required English to French and French to English. Interprefy shipped its "S-Box", a plug-and-play piece of hardware which sources audio and video feeds from the event. Interpreters worked from controlled environments in London. Interprefy also provided onsite and offsite support to ensure the event ran perfectly. #### The Outcome Conference delegate were able to easily download the Interprefy app and listen to real-time interpreting on their smartphones. “We have received very positive feedback from delegates, who were impressed with the level of interpreting and the clarity of sound,” said Elisabeth. ###### Related Case Studies [World Teachers' Day 2020 - Connecting 500,000 people in 24-hour live stream](https://www.interprefy.com/customer-stories/world-teachers-day-2020-interprefy-youtube) [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) ![Location of Event](https://www.interprefy.com/hubfs/Case%20Study%20Icons/Location%20of%20Event.svg) Location of Event:****EMEA ![No. of Attendees](https://www.interprefy.com/hubfs/Case%20Study%20Icons/No.%20of%20Attendees.svg) No. of Attendees:****50 ![Number of Languages](https://www.interprefy.com/hubfs/Case%20Study%20Icons/Number%20of%20Languages.svg) Number of Languages:****English & French ![Interprefy Service Provided](https://www.interprefy.com/hubfs/Case%20Study%20Icons/Interprefy%20Service%20Provided.svg) Interprefy Service Provided:****Onsite Support ![AV Partner](https://www.interprefy.com/hubfs/Case%20Study%20Icons/AV%20Partner.svg) AV Partner:****CWT Meetings & Events ![Language Service Provider](https://www.interprefy.com/hubfs/Case%20Study%20Icons/Language%20Service%20Provider.svg) Language Service Provider:** Interprenet ![Multilingual interpreting](https://www.interprefy.com/hubfs/Interprefy_January2020/Images/50-img.png) ## Our app is suited to meet your needs more than any other RSI provider As events become increasingly international and multilingual, the ability to deliver content in different languages and in real time is becoming a key differentiator for event organisers.
