fulIn November 2024, the Institut français hired fulbridge for its “Accès Culture” seminar in Rabat, held alongside the Visa for Music festival. We provided simultaneous interpretation from French into English, tabletop interpreter booths, a tour-guide radio system and a sound technician for about 70 participants.
The “Accès Culture” seminar, Rabat, November 2024
- Client: the Institut français (its culture and solidarity partnerships department), which hired us directly.
- Event: the “Accès Culture” seminar, held alongside the Visa for Music festival, as part of the Institut français’s support for the cultural and creative industries.
- Dates: 19, 20, 22 and 23 November 2024, in Rabat.
- Programme: visits to institutions, meetings and round tables, in several places.
- Participants: about 70, including a group of 6 to 8 English speakers who needed interpretation.
What we provided
- Interpreters: professional interpreters for simultaneous interpretation from French into English, on 19, 20, 22 and 23 November. We matched the team to each day’s programme.
- Tour-guide system: a wireless tour-guide case with 20 headsets, rented for 5 days. Participants could follow the interpretation during visits and while moving between places.
- Tabletop booths: interpreter booths that stand on a table, quick to set up in each room.
- Sound: column speakers and conference microphones.
- Technician: a sound technician on site on 19, 20 and 22 November.
- Paperwork: we followed the purchasing rules of a French public body: a quote, an official purchase order and payment in instalments.
The result
- The English-speaking participants followed every debate and workshop in the “Accès Culture” programme.
- The tour-guide cases, microphones and tabletop booths gave clear sound, in the rooms and during visits. The organisers said so.
