The essential message for decision-makers is that Dublin's workforce, clients and partners are far more multilingual than its English-speaking reputation suggests, and professional interpretation is often the difference between participation and exclusion. The service is relevant for technology companies with European headquarters in the city, financial and aviation leasing firms, pharmaceutical and medical technology companies, hospitals and public services, universities and event organisers. It is particularly useful for internal communications across EMEA teams, for client meetings with non-English-speaking partners and for public-facing services that need to reach Dublin's diverse population. Organisations in Dublin often rely on English as a universal language, yet many employees, patients and stakeholders work more effectively in their own language. This article explains how video remote interpreting and remote simultaneous interpreting work, what makes Dublin's context distinctive, how to evaluate providers and how to put interpretation into practice. ## **Summary** - What video remote interpreting services provide and when remote simultaneous interpreting is needed. - Dublin's multilingual reality, from EMEA headquarters to public services. - The impact of Ireland's 2026 Presidency of the Council of the EU. - An 11-point checklist for selecting a provider. - How [AP | PORTUGAL](https://go.apportugal.com/en/) supports organisations in Dublin.   ## **What Video Remote Interpreting Services Provide** Video remote interpreting brings a qualified interpreter into a video call or a room equipped with a screen and microphones. The interpreter can work consecutively, rendering each statement after the speaker pauses, or simultaneously, interpreting while the speaker continues. It is the natural choice for meetings, consultations, interviews, appraisals, training sessions and negotiations involving a small or medium-sized group. [Remote simultaneous interpreting](https://go.apportugal.com/pages/en/rsi-en/) is used when an audience listens to presentations in several languages. Interpreters deliver each language on a separate channel, and participants select their language on a platform, an app or a receiver. For company-wide town halls and webinars, platforms with built-in interpretation make zoom interpretation services and their Microsoft Teams equivalents a practical option.   ## **Dublin's Multilingual Reality** ### **European Headquarters of Global Companies** Dublin hosts the European or EMEA headquarters of many global technology, pharmaceutical and financial companies. Teams based in the city support customers and colleagues across dozens of markets, and internal events such as all-hands meetings, leadership sessions and training programmes often bring together employees whose first languages include French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Polish. ### **Ireland's Presidency of the Council of the EU** Ireland holds the Presidency of the Council of the European Union from July to December 2026, for the eighth time. Dublin Castle serves as the principal venue for the Presidency meetings programme, and the city has been hosting informal ministerial meetings, conferences and stakeholder events with delegations from every member state. This programme has raised the profile of multilingual events in Dublin and increased demand for interpreting, audiovisual and event services during the period. ### **Healthcare and Public Services** Dublin's population includes large communities whose first languages are Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Lithuanian, Arabic, Chinese and many others. Hospitals, clinics and public services increasingly use video interpreting services to communicate accurately with patients and service users, particularly when consent, diagnosis or legal rights are involved. ### **Irish and English** Irish is the first official language of Ireland and an official language of the European Union. Public bodies and events with an institutional dimension may need to provide content in Irish as well as English, which should be considered when planning official conferences and ceremonies.   ## **Conference Centres and Event Venues in Dublin** Dublin's main event venues are concentrated around the Docklands, Ballsbridge and the city centre, with historic state venues hosting official meetings. Most are well served by public transport and within reasonable distance of Dublin Airport. AP | PORTUGAL has extensive experience supporting events in venues of this type and in many other international destinations, providing video remote interpreting, remote simultaneous interpreting, audiovisual equipment rental, event management and accessibility solutions. Venues frequently used for congresses, conferences and corporate events include: - [The Convention Centre Dublin (CCD)](https://www.theccd.ie/) - [RDS, Ballsbridge](https://www.rds.ie/) - [Croke Park](https://crokepark.ie/) - [Aviva Stadium](https://www.avivastadium.ie/) - [Dublin Castle](https://www.dublincastle.ie/) The Convention Centre Dublin hosts the largest international congresses, while the RDS, Croke Park and the Aviva Stadium offer conference facilities for corporate and association events of many sizes. Dublin Castle remains the setting for state and EU-related meetings, where historic rooms make remote interpretation a practical alternative to temporary booths. There is no official list ranking video remote interpreting services in Dublin, and no independent body evaluates providers for that purpose, so any ranking found online reflects only the criteria of its author. The checklist that follows sets out the indicators a strong provider should be able to demonstrate.   ## **An 11-Point Checklist for Selecting Video Remote Interpreting Services** This checklist reflects the situations Dublin organisations most often face, from internal corporate communications to healthcare and public sector settings. It can be used to structure conversations with potential providers and to compare their proposals consistently. - Interpreters qualified in each required language, including less common languages spoken in Dublin's communities. - Specialist experience for healthcare, legal, financial or technical content where relevant. - Ability to provide both consecutive and simultaneous interpreting as needed. - Familiarity with Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Webex and dedicated interpreting platforms. - Clear procedures for booking, rescheduling and cancelling sessions. - Confidentiality agreements and secure handling of documents. - Guidance on audio equipment for meeting rooms and clinical settings. - Live technical support with a defined response time during sessions. - Capacity to scale from individual meetings to large hybrid events. - Continuity of interpreters for recurring meetings and programmes. - An itemised proposal that separates interpreting, preparation and technical support. A provider that addresses all 11 points with clear processes and concrete examples has usually built its service around the realities of multilingual organisations. Where answers are general, especially on booking procedures, confidentiality and technical support, it is worth asking for more detail before reaching a decision.   ## **Two Dublin Scenarios** In a first hypothetical case, a technology company with its EMEA headquarters in Dublin holds a quarterly all-hands meeting for 1,200 employees, around a third of whom work in customer-facing teams across continental Europe. The leadership presents in English, and remote simultaneous interpreting provides French, German, Spanish and Italian channels in the streaming platform. Questions submitted in any of these languages are interpreted into English for the panel, giving employees a genuine voice in the discussion rather than a passive viewing experience. In a second case, a Dublin hospital uses video remote interpreting to support consultations with a Brazilian patient whose English is limited. A Portuguese interpreter joins the consultation through a secure tablet in the clinic, working in consecutive mode, so that the consultant can explain the diagnosis and treatment options and confirm that the patient understands before consent is given.   ## **Common Pitfalls** The most frequent pitfall is relying on bilingual colleagues or family members to interpret. In corporate settings this diverts employees from their roles, and in healthcare or legal settings it can compromise accuracy, confidentiality and impartiality. Professional interpreters bring both language skills and a code of conduct designed for these situations. Another common issue is technical: interpreters joining through poor audio connections, meetings without interpretation features enabled or rooms where participants are far from the microphone. Agreeing on basic technical standards with the provider prevents most of these problems. Finally, real time translation services based on AI are useful for captions and general understanding, but they are not a reliable substitute for interpreters in consultations, negotiations or official meetings.   ## **ISO 23155 Certification and ESG Principles** AP | PORTUGAL is certified under ISO 23155, the international standard for conference interpreting services, which sets requirements for how interpreting assignments are organised and delivered. The company also follows ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) principles, which shape the way its projects are planned and managed. ### **Environmental** Remote interpreting avoids flights and hotel stays for interpreters, which reduces the environmental impact of international meetings and events held in Dublin. ### **Social** Interpretation and accessibility solutions allow employees, patients and stakeholders to participate in their own language, supporting inclusion in workplaces and public services. ### **Governance** Confidentiality agreements, documented procedures and transparent proposals give organisations confidence in how the service is delivered and how information is handled.   ## **How AP | PORTUGAL Supports Organisations in Dublin** Video remote interpreting is delivered online, so organisations in Dublin can work with a specialised video remote interpreting company regardless of where it is based. AP | PORTUGAL has around 30 years of experience and thousands of multilingual projects, managing interpreter selection, platform set-up and live support for corporate, healthcare, institutional and event clients.

For a corporate headquarters, this may be internal communication with European teams; for a hospital or public service, it may be specific patient or user groups. Each area suggests a different combination of video remote interpreting and remote simultaneous interpreting. Set up a simple, repeatable booking process with your provider, and agree on platform and audio standards with your IT or facilities team. For recurring meetings, request the same interpreters and maintain shared glossaries. For large events, include interpretation in the run of show and schedule a technical rehearsal with speakers and the streaming team. Review usage regularly. Data on which languages are requested and how often helps refine the service, allocate budget and identify new areas where interpretation would improve outcomes.   ## **Frequently Asked Questions** ### **Is interpretation necessary in an English-speaking city like Dublin?** Often, yes. Many employees, clients and service users work or communicate more accurately in their first language, particularly in technical, medical or legal contexts. ### **Can video remote interpreting be used in hospitals and clinics?** Yes. It is widely used in healthcare, provided the platform is secure and interpreters have experience with medical terminology and protocols. ### **Which languages are most requested in Dublin?** Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Arabic and Chinese are among the most frequent, depending on the sector. ### **Can interpretation be added to a company town hall on Teams or Zoom?** Yes. Both platforms support interpretation channels when the feature is enabled on the host account, and a short test with interpreters is recommended. ### **How quickly can a video remote interpreting session be booked?** Short sessions in common languages can often be arranged at limited notice, while less common languages and specialised content benefit from earlier booking. ### **How is the cost determined?** Pricing depends on the language, the duration and frequency of sessions, the interpreting mode and the level of technical support required. ### **Can interpreters provide Irish for official events?** Yes. Irish interpretation can be included for institutional events and ceremonies where content in the national language is required. ### **Is remote simultaneous interpreting suitable for events at the Convention Centre Dublin?** Yes. The interpretation feed can be integrated with the venue's audio system, serving delegates in the room and participants online through the same channels. ### **How is confidentiality protected in video remote interpreting?** Interpreters work under confidentiality agreements, sessions are access-controlled and documents are shared and stored according to agreed procedures.   ## **Conclusion** Dublin's role as a European business hub, its diverse population and the 2026 EU Council Presidency make multilingual communication a daily reality rather than an occasional need. Video remote interpreting supports meetings, consultations and training, while remote simultaneous interpreting gives large audiences access to events in their own language.
