In short
A Brazilian company with international reach
STIB is a simultaneous interpretation company founded in 2007 in São Paulo. It serves events in virtually any country, on-site or remotely, with certified conference interpreters (including AIIC, SINTRA and ABRATES members) in more than 40 languages.
STIB was the official interpreter for Brazil's delegation at WorldSkills in four editions: UK 2011, Leipzig 2013, São Paulo 2015 and Abu Dhabi 2017. On those missions, the interpreters stayed with the delegation for the entire competition in a technical, high-pressure setting.

How does interpretation for an event abroad work?
STIB agrees the languages, format (on-site, remote or hybrid) and equipment with the organizer. On-site, the interpreters and technician travel to the event, and equipment is shipped or sourced locally. Remotely, interpreters work from professional hubs on a platform with one audio channel per language.
How many languages does STIB cover?

How far in advance should I book for an international event?
Six to eight weeks is ideal for events abroad because of travel, visas and accreditation. For major conferences such as COPs and summits, book as early as possible. Urgent requests can be covered remotely.
