Case Study: Embassy of Brazil achieves seamless high-level diplomatic talks for 2016 Olympic planning with thebigword

Embassy of Brazil - Customer Case Study

The Embassy of Brazil needed to learn from the UK’s experience ahead of the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games but language barriers threatened top‑level knowledge‑sharing. The Embassy of Brazil engaged thebigword for comprehensive interpreting support — including face‑to‑face and whisper interpreters and specialist interpreting technology — to ensure diplomatic meetings could go ahead smoothly.

thebigword recruited, assessed and fully briefed expert linguists and provided a dedicated project manager, Tiago Rocha, to coordinate confidential, high‑level interpreting for meetings between military leaders, finance and disability ministers and even former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown. Thebigword’s discreet, quality‑assured service ensured seamless communication across all sessions, facilitating productive collaboration on Games planning and legacy and delivering a successful project outcome.
