Whether you’re hosting a global conference, managing a corporate town hall, or running a live-streamed webinar, [close captions and subtitles](https://subcaptioner.com/the-ai-revolution-evolution-of-closed-captioning/?utm_source=chatgpt.com#:~:text=AI%20captioning%20promises%20to%20enhance%20the%20viewing%20experience%20for%20all%20audiences.%20By%20providing%20captions%20in%20multiple%20languages%2C%20enabling%20keyword%20search%20within%20video%20content%2C%20and%20facilitating%20content%20indexing%2C%20AI%2Dpowered%20systems%20opened%20up%20new%20avenues%20for%20engagement%20and%20discovery.%C2%A0) are no longer something you can overlook. They are the key to making your message clear, inclusive, and impactful. ###### Topics: Live Captions Accessibility ###### 4 min read ## The Evolution of Interprefy: Transforming Simultaneous Interpretation By [Dayana Abuin Rios](https://www.interprefy.com/resources/blog/author/dayana-abuin-rios) on January 23, 2025 In 2014, a bold idea was born in Zurich that would forever change the interpretation and translation industry. Kim Ludvigsen, the visionary founder of [Interprefy](https://www.interprefy.com/), was attending a conference when he noticed the outdated booths and equipment used for interpretation—technology that hadn’t seen much change since the 1960s. Inspired by the widespread use of smartphones and the internet, he posed a pivotal question that would spark a revolution: why couldn’t interpreters work remotely and attendees use their own devices to access event interpretations? This question marked the beginning of [Remote Simultaneous Interpretation (RSI)](https://www.interprefy.com/solutions/remote-simultaneous-interpretation). ###### Topics: Remote Simultaneous Interpretation Accessibility ###### 4 min read ## 5 tips to make your event more accessible when you are on a budget By [Patricia Magaz](https://www.interprefy.com/resources/blog/author/patricia-magaz) on August 23, 2023 Did you know that women involved in rear-end car crashes are three times more likely to suffer whiplash injuries compared to men? There’s a reason for this. According to a [BBC report](https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-62877930), the crash test dummies used to simulate car accidents are nearly all built to reflect the average male build and weight. This means that, in most cases, car safety is optimised for men to the neglect of 50% of the population. ###### Topics: Live Captions Accessibility ###### 3 min read ## The cost of inaccessibility: Why events must prioritise accessibility By [Oddmund Braaten](https://www.interprefy.com/resources/blog/author/oddmund-braaten) on June 23, 2023 First published on [Smartmeetings.com](https://www.smartmeetings.com/tips-tools/152470/why-events-must-prioritize-accessibility-for-all-attendees) It’s 2023, and we’re still talking about [a lack of accessibility](https://www.heraldscotland.com/news/20605210.edinburgh-fringe-faces-criticism-lack-disabled-access/)in the [events industry](https://www.gamespot.com/articles/not-e3-events-criticized-for-lack-of-accessibility/1100-6504657/).From an [absence of diverse panel speakers](https://www.bizbash.com/production-strategy/opinion-experts/article/21136574/diversity-in-events-what-it-means-where-were-failing-and-what-comes-next) to a lack of options for those visually or hearing impaired, events still aren’t catering to everyone. And we’re not just talking about providing wheelchair access either, [something which is also quite high/low in the industry](https://attitudeiseverything.org.uk/industry/welcoming-disabled-audiences/). ###### Topics: Remote Simultaneous Interpretation Live Captions Accessibility ###### 3 min read ## Why you should consider adding live captions and subtitles to your next event By [Patricia Magaz](https://www.interprefy.com/resources/blog/author/patricia-magaz) on May 18, 2022 What is the connection between Netflix, Facebook, Instagram, Vimeo, and YouTube? Without a doubt, they are among the top video consumption platforms today. But they all have one thing in common: all of these video platforms include captions or subtitles for video uploads as part of their core features. Why? Let's dive into some of the key benefits of live captioning: ###### Topics: Online Events Live Captions Accessibility ###### 4 min read ## What the last year has taught us about inclusivity for events By [Patricia Magaz](https://www.interprefy.com/resources/blog/author/patricia-magaz) on November 3, 2021 In March of 2020, we published a blog post offering advice on how to [improve the diversity and inclusion of your online events](https://www.interprefy.com/resources/blog/improving-the-diversity-and-inclusion-of-your-online-event). While it was still early days in the pandemic and the true impact of regional lockdowns was yet to be seen, it was already clear that there was a dramatic change in how events were planned, hosted, and attended. ###### Topics: Accessibility Event Solutions [All posts](https://www.interprefy.com/resources/blog/all) [Download from the App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/interprefy/id971176635) [Download from Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.interprefy.interprefy&hl=en&gl=US) [More download links](https://www.interprefy.com/download-interprefy-app) - - - - Our Solutions - [Remote Interpreting](https://www.interprefy.com/solutions/remote-simultaneous-interpretation) - [AI Speech Translation](https://www.interprefy.com/solutions/ai-translation) - [Live Captions & Subtitles](https://www.interprefy.com/solutions/multilingual-live-captions-and-subtitles) - [Integrations](https://www.interprefy.com/solutions/integrations) - [Book an Interpreter](https://www.interprefy.com/about-us/interpreter-sourcing) About Us - [Why Us?](https://www.interprefy.com/about-us/why-interprefy) - [About Us](https://www.interprefy.com/about-us-old) - [How We Work](https://www.interprefy.com/about-us/how-we-work) - [Customer Stories](https://www.interprefy.com/customer-stories) - [Our Partners](https://www.interprefy.com/javascript:void(0);) - [Careers](https://www.interprefy.com/about-us/careers-old) Resources - [Blog](https://www.interprefy.com/resources/blog) - [News](https://www.interprefy.com/resources/press/companynews) - [eBooks & Webinars](https://www.interprefy.com/resources/webinars-and-ebooks) - [Knowledge Base](https://knowledge.interprefy.com) - [Join your meeting](https://interprefy.interpret.world/user/sign-in) - [Join mailing list](https://www.interprefy.com/join-our-mailing-list) - [Contact Us](https://www.interprefy.com/contact-us) @2026 Interprefy.
