Simultaneous interpreting is delivered from a soundproof booth as the speaker gives his or her speech. It is performed by a team of at least two interpreters taking turns of 20-30 minutes.
This is the mode of interpretation commonly used in all large multilingual conferences and has the advantage of not lengthening the duration of the event. Simultaneous interpreting is often the ideal solution also for smaller meetings as it allows for immediate reactions and encourages a more spontaneous debate.
