Information Commissioners Office (ICO)

Projects

We have worked on a few different projects for the Information Commissioners office, most recently we have provided simultaneous audio interpretation into English, Spanish, and French across two international closed events, and DPPC; a multi-thousand delegate conference, with over 20 speakers, 4 concurrent breakout sessions. Including interactive voting and live Q&A.

Process

Simultaneous audio interpretation

Two, multi-day closed international events ran by the Information Commissioners Office led to the requirement of simultaneous audio interpretation due to foreign internationals in attendance or presenting.We setup a bespoke online platform to provide access to English, Spanish, and French interpretation channels for the entire event audience and presenting team.This enabled presenters and audience members alike to listen to the event in their native language throughout.

Features included:

  • A bespoke platform to listen to a given audio translation in a preferred language.
  • Secure login due to the sensitive and closed nature of the events
  • Advanced data security and data handling procedures
  • 6 dedicated interpreters

The language interpreters received praise over their work and the event interpretation was a great success.

DPPC Conference

The DPPC Conference was attended virtually by over 4,000 people, enjoying a mix of presentations, interactive panels, and smaller interactive breakout areas for specific topics.

Features included:

  • Bespoke website and platform to house an interactive agenda and live sessions.
  • Live Q&A.
  • Live Voting.
  • Live support from our support team for delegates using the portal.
  • Full technical support from conception through to production.
  • Full recording of all sessions and 1-month post-hosting of the entire portal for delegates to re-login and watch any parts again.
  • Captioning provided by real-time dedicated stenocaptioner to all 4 concurrent breakout sessions and all main sessions.

The DPPC conference was a huge success attracting some fantastic feedback from attending delegates.
