Why pharmaceuticals start using remote simultaneous interpretation

Since the global pandemic, many pharmaceutical companies and the medical industry overall have adapted to the new challenges. One of the biggest ones was the shift from traditional face-to-face communication to more hybrid approaches. 

The interpretation industry was among the many that had to adapt to this new form of communication. The change was needed as the travel restrictions, and the ban on in-person events paralyzed the interpretation industry. However, this challenge gave rise to remote simultaneous interpretation (RSI). 

Even though the pandemic is coming to an end, we can say this for sure: RSI is here to stay! In fact, it’s becoming the number one solution for seamless communication among governmental institutions, NGOs, and businesses, pharmaceuticals included.

Why are RSI platforms your best solutions for multilingual meetings and events? Stick with us as we help you grasp the main reasons why!

What is RSI?

Remote simultaneous interpretation is live translation 2.0. With this type of interpretation, every person (interpreters included!) can receive the audio and video feed virtually. This means that everyone can connect remotely from anywhere in the world: on-site, from their home, or international office from another part of the globe. 

And did we mention that you can access RSI through dedicated platforms? So after you choose the right RSI solution for your company, you can have communication free of language barriers. 

For example, at Interactio, we offer an all-in-one multilingual meeting solution that is secure, high-quality, user-friendly, and designed for truly seamless communication. Want to learn more?

Why is RSI the best option for pharmaceuticals?

Now that you know more about RSI, you might still wonder why it’s the best type of interpretation for improving communication among pharmaceutical companies. That’s a valid point! Let’s dig deeper into some of the main reasons why pharmaceuticals start using RSI. 

High-security standards

Data protection, reliability, and security are significant concerns for businesses. And they should be, as cybersecurity attacks and disruptions are common. In fact, according to Accenture, 68% of business leaders claim that their cybersecurity risks are increasing. So, how can RSI platforms help with that?

We agree – sharing files, contacts, and other important data online can be risky. That’s why businesses start using RSI platforms with high-security standards to host meetings or conferences.

We can say for sure that at Interactio, we put security at the heart of our product development. In fact, we put a lot of effort into maintaining high-security standards and top-level reliability. How do we do that? For starters, we approach your data with care and leave the choice of how we handle it to you. 

You can also rest assured that no internet disruptions can disturb your event – not with our bulletproof backup system and a proven record of 0 identified incidents to date. And did we mention that we have compliance certifications and memberships, such as ISO 27001, HIPAA, and CSA? 

All-in-one solution

Planning a meeting can be time-consuming, especially if you need to worry about synchronic translation and take care of multiple other stakeholders. RSI services can take some of the pressure off. 

If you’re looking for a seamless event experience, an all-in-one solution can make it happen. How? Let’s just say that RSI solutions are designed to be intuitive, easy-to-use, and have high-quality interpretation. Interactio, for example, has the top-market audio and video quality, with up to 510 kbps audio for the highest audio quality on the market and less than 200 ms latency for uninterrupted interpretation.

To top it all off, a dedicated technical support team is always available to support you in case you run into any issues. And let’s not forget that we can train your interpreter team to use the platform.

That way, you don’t have to worry about anything – with dedicated training, support, and top-market quality, your events will go to the next level. Meanwhile, you get to sit back and enjoy the experience. All you need to make RSI happen is an internet connection, a phone or a laptop, and a headset. Sounds convenient, right?

Greater flexibility

If a pharmaceutical company decides to use interpretation to improve communication between the internal team members, clients, and partners, RSI can bring the element of adaptability to any meeting. 

You can have interpretation for on-site, online, or hybrid meetings, no matter how complex your setup is. The best part is that you can work with interpreters without any transportation hustle. And you no longer have to worry about adapting the solution to your events!

Reliable RSI platforms are designed to be adaptable to the client’s needs. And did we mention that you can integrate our solution with the online video-conferencing platforms you already use, such as MS Teams, Zoom, and WebEx? 

RSI meetings can be whatever you need them to be: on any platform, with unlimited language combinations, on-site and remote participation, and many more. We take pride in our high customizability and flexibility. How special can we make your event? 

Effective reach

Interpretation helps to build bridges to limitless knowledge. That’s right – it can help expand your clientele and pharmaceutical business as a whole. 

Let’s say you connect with a client or a partner outside of your usual scope. Not only can you run into language barriers, but also accidentally come across miscommunication due to culturally sensitive and field-specific topics. The terminology also has to be highly specific and niche in the medical field. 

A great way to avoid culture and field-related miscommunication with a client is to have a professional interpreter help you in the business meeting. In such cases, an interpreter will adjust the message to fit the cultural and business context for you. All you have to do is communicate your pitch!

At Interactio, we train the interpreters for the right scenario so your message will never get lost in translation. If you come prepared with your interpreter team, we teach them all the ins and outs of our platform so that it becomes their second nature. This way, your events with live translation will run as smoothly as humanly possible! Find out more about our interpreter console and how we improve it every day. 

In short

Since the global pandemic, pharmaceuticals have started using more complex event formats with more demands and needs, which is where RSI solutions come to the rescue. In fact, the popularity is increasing even though the pandemic is coming to an end. RSI has become popular because of its benefits, such as more adaptability, high-security standards, and reasonable pricing.
