STIB. Executive Interpreting

São PauloBrasíliaNew YorkMiamiLos AngelesRemote worldwide

One interpreter. The whole itinerary.

Executive interpreting for leadership teams working across borders — the same interpreter with you from the first meeting to the closing dinner, briefed on your material, bound by NDA, and equally at home in a board room, a plant floor and a negotiation that runs three hours long.

Why continuity matters

A trip is not a series of unrelated meetings

Booking a different interpreter for each appointment means re-explaining the deal four times, and hoping the same term is rendered the same way in each room. Executive interpreting removes that risk by keeping one professional across the whole agenda.

Terminology holds

Your product names, deal structure and technical vocabulary are learned once and used consistently for the entire trip — including in the informal conversations where deals actually move.

Confidentiality is one contract

One NDA, one named professional. Sensitive information is not spread across a rotating cast of freelancers hired meeting by meeting.

Nothing is renegotiated on the day

Schedule changes, an added site visit, a dinner that turns into a working session — the interpreter is already there, already briefed, already cleared.

Assignment types

Four ways executive teams use us

01

Executive & escort interpreting

An interpreter travels with the executive or the small team: meetings, plant and site visits, working meals, hospital or laboratory tours, press. Mobile, consecutive or whispered, no equipment required.

02

Board meetings, roadshows & due diligence

Simultaneous interpreting in structured, seated settings — board and shareholder meetings, investor roadshows, data-room sessions and management presentations, with equipment and technical support.

03

Confidential document translation

The paperwork that travels with the trip: term sheets, contracts, regulatory dossiers, board packs and technical annexes — translated under NDA, with terminology aligned to what is said in the room.

04

Delegations & official missions

Trade missions, government delegations, international competitions and multilateral events. STIB was the official interpreting team for Brazil's delegation at four editions of WorldSkills.

Coverage

Where an executive interpreter can meet you

A United States assignment does not require flying an interpreter from Brazil: we have professionals and our own simultaneous interpreting equipment on the ground in three US cities. When continuity across the whole trip matters more than location, an interpreter travels with the delegation instead.

Straight answers

Executive interpreting, answered

What does an executive interpreter do?

An executive interpreter accompanies a senior leader through a full itinerary rather than a single session: meetings, plant and site visits, working lunches, negotiations, interviews and informal conversation. Because it is the same interpreter throughout, terminology, context and confidentiality carry from one appointment to the next.

What is the difference between escort interpreting and simultaneous interpreting?

Escort interpreting is mobile and conversational: one interpreter moves with a small group, working consecutively or whispering. Simultaneous interpreting is used in seated, structured settings such as board meetings and conferences, delivered in real time with equipment and normally by two interpreters per language.

Can STIB provide an interpreter in New York, Miami or Los Angeles?

Yes. STIB has professional interpreters and simultaneous interpreting equipment on the ground in New York, Miami and Los Angeles, so a United States assignment does not require flying an interpreter from Brazil. Interpreters can also travel with a delegation when continuity matters more than location.

Why are two interpreters required for a full day of simultaneous interpreting?

Simultaneous interpreting demands continuous listening, analysis and speaking at once, and accuracy falls measurably after roughly 30 minutes of solo work. Professional practice is therefore a pair per language who relieve each other, which is why a full-day session is quoted with two interpreters rather than one.

How is confidentiality handled on sensitive assignments?

Interpreters and translators are assigned under a non-disclosure agreement, and STIB signs the client's own NDA when required. Documents are shared only with the named linguists working on the assignment, and interpreters follow the professional duty of secrecy that applies to everything heard in the room.

How much notice does an executive assignment need?

Two to three weeks is comfortable for a multi-day itinerary, allowing interpreter matching, NDA signature and preparation from your materials. Single meetings and remote sessions can often be arranged within days, and short-notice requests are accepted subject to interpreter availability.

What materials should be sent to the interpreter before the trip?

The agenda, participant list, presentation decks, the contract or dossier under discussion, and any internal glossary or product naming. Material sent in advance is what separates a fluent session from a hesitant one; everything received is covered by the confidentiality agreement.
