Interpretation Services in Bali
Interpretation for international conferences and government forums in Nusa Dua and across Bali
Maven provides interpretation services in Bali for international conferences, government forums, association congresses, incentive events, board meetings and press conferences, most of them in the Nusa Dua convention district. Interpreters can work on-site, online or hybrid, and simultaneous interpretation can be supported with equipment and technicians on site.
Maven's Indonesia office is in Jakarta, and assignments in Bali are run from there.
Bali venues where our interpreters work
Nusa Dua is a resort enclave managed by the state tourism developer ITDC, with about 20 hotels and two international convention centers. Our interpreters can work in venues across Bali, including the following:
Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center
The largest convention center on the island, with a main hall that divides into smaller halls and dozens of multi-function rooms. Hosts summits, international organization meetings and large association congresses.
Bali International Convention Centre
Attached to The Westin in Nusa Dua, with large plenary and breakout space and in-house interpretation facilities. Hosts intergovernmental forums, international association meetings and hybrid conferences.
The Mulia

Indonesian interpreters in Bali
Indonesian interpreters in Bali are required at government-hosted forums and ministerial meetings in Nusa Dua, where Indonesian officials speak Indonesian and international delegations follow in English or their own languages.
Mandarin interpreters in Bali
Mandarin interpreters in Bali are required for delegations, investors and corporate incentive groups from China, which is one of the island's three largest visitor markets.
Balinese is the language of village and ceremonial life, and the provincial government protects its use, including Balinese script on public signs. It is required for community consultations and research fieldwork rather than conferences, along with Javanese, Madurese and Sasak for workers who come from other islands.

Interpretation equipment and technical support in Bali
For interpretation equipment rental in Bali Maven supplies:
- Soundproof booths
- Interpreter consoles and headsets
- Infrared or FM systems
- Wireless receivers for delegates
- Portable systems for tours and small rooms
- Technicians on site
In Bali the equipment comes through reliable technical partners on the island. Maven's own role is the language side of the conference: finding and coordinating qualified simultaneous interpreters and selecting the right team for the program.
Some Nusa Dua convention venues have their own interpretation facilities, so Maven checks what the venue supplies and adds booths, receivers and technicians where a program runs in more rooms or more languages than the venue can handle. Resort ballrooms and outdoor venues need a full portable setup, which the partners deliver and run with the interpreter team.
Microphones, projectors, screens and voting devices can be supplied with the interpretation system as one package.
