Event Interpreting Service for EAGE in Costa Rica
When a global organization like The European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers (EAGE) entrusts a Central American company with a high-level technical event, every detail matters. At the recent edition held in Liberia, Guanacaste, Tilde demonstrated how a turnkey event interpreting service transforms the client’s experience, facilitates decision-making, and ensures international collaboration without language barriers.
The duty was clear: EAGE required a professional, reliable, and technically flawless interpreting service for their specialized meeting in Costa Rica. Operating from Colombia and Europe, their team sought a local partner who not only understood the high standards of the geoscience sector but also delivered a comprehensive solution. From the initial approach, Tilde embraced the client’s vision: to create a seamless, precise, and fully managed experience.
Our ISO 9001 and ISO 17100 certified processes were instrumental in anticipating needs, rigorously planning, and meticulously coordinating logistics. Four months before the event, our operational plan was thoroughly prepared, allowing the client to focus exclusively on content and their own clients while Tilde successfully managed the rest.
For this project, we deployed to Liberia two specialized sound technicians, a complete simultaneous interpreting system, amplification equipment, interpretation booths, microphones, visual projection, and two experienced interpreters with experience in highly technical contexts. Given that the event took place outside the Greater Metropolitan Area, Tilde also arranged accommodation, meals, and transportation for the team, guaranteeing punctuality, safety, well-being, and an optimal environment for interpreters to perform at their best.
Hosting events outside the Greater Metropolitan Area presents different logistical challenges—from inspecting venues and adapting equipment, to coordinating transport routes and ensuring technical redundancies. These challenges become opportunities to showcase the efficiency and operational rigor that define Tilde as a specialist in high-standard corporate events. Every step requires planning and quality control, areas where Tilde consistently excels.
The outcome was a flawless, smooth event where international EAGE attendees accessed complex technical content with absolute clarity. The quality of service exceeded expectations and opened new doors. Thanks to Tilde’s performance in previous editions, the client has invited us to lead the comprehensive planning phase for the 2025 edition.
For Tilde, this case reaffirms a core truth: when an international company trusts a local partner for a technical event in Latin America, they seek more than interpretation. They look for peace of mind, expertise, reliable logistics, and a team that foresees every need. A turnkey service ultimately provides a worry-free experience for our clients and a precise environment where specialized knowledge flows fluently.
In a world where face-to-face events remain vital for knowledge transfer, professional interpreting becomes a bridge, accelerator, and strategic value. Backed by certified management systems, early planning, and highly trained personnel, it is a competitive advantage for any global organization.
