With its transformation into a global showcase, attracting delegations from 28 countries, COMEUP 2023 highlights the critical role of live interpretation in bridging cultural and linguistic divides, a role that XL8 is perfectly equipped to fulfill. XL8’s real-time interpretation solution promises to be the cornerstone of the event, ensuring a fully immersive on-site experience for all attendees.
This innovative solution seamlessly translates the spoken words of on-stage speakers into multiple languages, providing attendees with translated subtitles on on-site screens and mobile devices. Attendees can effortlessly select their preferred language, transcending language barriers and enabling a more inclusive and engaging event experience.
Launched in October, this groundbreaking solution, a collaboration between ONOFFMIX, a comprehensive event platform, and XL8, is meticulously designed for both online and offline conferences, meetings, and live commerce. It effectively addresses common challenges, such as the scarcity of professional staff and budget constraints.
“XL8’s translation engine, trained on top-tier media translation data, stands as the world’s premier colloquial translation engine,” said Tim Jung, CEO of XL8. “It has already been instrumental in events such as the Nature Forum at Korea Center for Gendered Innovations for Science and Technology Research, the multicultural family invitation event at the Leeum Museum of Art, and last month’s international training course workshop at the National Archives. We are committed to expanding its applications, easing language barriers for customers in live broadcasts and online events worldwide.”
In a notable event highlight, Tim Jung will participate as a panelist on the main stage of Art Hall 2 at 5:30 p.m. on November 9th, discussing ‘How should AI startups survive in the age of ChatGPT?’ He will share insights into his journey from founding an AI startup in Silicon Valley as a Korean entrepreneur, the evolving global media market landscape, and the pivotal role of AI in the industry.
XL8’s groundbreaking AI-powered live interpretation services at COMEUP 2023 are set to redefine the event experience, fostering a truly inclusive environment where language is no longer a barrier to meaningful interaction.
