Simultaneous Interpretation via Microsoft Teams

From quote to event: how it works

lingo delivers a quote in 60 seconds via WhatsApp or the online calculator at lingo.com.br/orcamento. Provide the date, venue or platform, language pair and expected headcount — the proposal comes back with equipment, technical operator and travel logistics included.

Alex Barros requests the presentation deck and agenda 48 hours in advance to prepare the event-specific technical glossary. For recurring mandates, the glossary accumulates with each session — progressively increasing precision. Clients like Macquarie, Carlyle and BlackRock have maintained monthly mandates since 2019 precisely for this reason: a recurring interpreter knows the company's terminology better than any one-off hire could.

In-person, remote or hybrid: which modality for your event?

The modality choice depends on event type, size and format. For boards and executive sessions with up to 20 participants in one room, RSI via Zoom is more efficient — no equipment cost, no freight logistics, same quality. For conferences and trade shows with 50 to 2,000 participants, the in-person system with individual UHF receivers is the standard.

Hybrid events combine both formats: UHF receivers for the in-person audience and an interpretation channel on Zoom or Teams for remote participants. lingo operated exactly this format at Santos FC × SDC Sports in August 2026 — 150 in-person receivers at Vila Belmiro, plus a Zoom channel for the US-based representatives who joined remotely.

What sets lingo apart

Brazil's simultaneous interpretation market has few professionals with documented portfolios in high-stakes corporate contexts. Most interpreters work academic, government or entertainment events. lingo specializes exclusively in premium corporate interpretation — finance, legal, technology, agribusiness, defense — with cases documented at the level of JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, Macquarie and BlackRock.

The difference is not certification — Brazil has no mandatory regulated qualification for interpreters. It's the clients: when Macquarie, Carlyle and BlackRock return month after month, the quality is self-evident. Recurring mandates are the only credible signal of consistency in this profession.

Simultaneous interpretation in Brazil: everything you need to know

Simultaneous interpretation is the most efficient service for events with participants in multiple languages. The interpreter converts speech in real time — with a 2 to 4-second lag — while the speaker continues talking. Participants hear the interpretation on individual receivers without interrupting the event.

To hire lingo, the process is straightforward: quote in 60 seconds via WhatsApp (+55 11 97534-6423) or the online calculator. Alex Barros confirms availability, requests the event deck 48 hours in advance to prepare the technical glossary, and arrives 60–90 minutes early to install and test the equipment.

For remote events via Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet or Webex, lingo configures the language interpretation channel 30 minutes in advance. Participants select their language in the app — no additional plugins required. lingo has maintained monthly remote mandates with Macquarie, Carlyle and BlackRock since 2019.

The quote includes interpreter confirmation, equipment (if in-person), technical operator and logistics — no hidden costs. Alex Barros requests the event deck and agenda 48 hours before to prepare the event-specific technical glossary. For recurring mandates, the glossary accumulates over sessions, increasing precision progressively. Clients who hold monthly or quarterly boards with lingo — Macquarie, Carlyle, BlackRock, Burger King/RBI, 3corações × Strauss — return because the quality is consistent and the glossary is already built. New clients receive the same glossary preparation from their event materials.
