Creative concept

The idea
the night was built on.

A global leadership summit where language was designed for rather than apologised for.

The challenge

Four live interpretation channels, seven country delegations and a content set finalised nine days before doors.

The solution

Interpreters were briefed with the full deck set and a glossary of internal terms a week ahead. Receivers were issued at registration by default rather than on request.

The execution

Channel usage peaked at 61% of the room — far above the 15% the client expected, which changed how they plan every summit since.

The document

Abridged from the working run sheet. Every line was owned by a named person before the doors opened.
