Interpretation equipment and technical support in Jakarta

- Infrared or FM systems
- Wireless receivers for delegates
- Portable systems for tours and small rooms
- Technicians on site
Maven does not keep its own equipment stock in Jakarta. The equipment comes through reliable local technical partners, while Maven concentrates on the language side: sourcing and coordinating qualified simultaneous interpreters and selecting the team for each program.
Some venues, such as the plenary hall at the Jakarta International Convention Center, have a built-in interpretation system. Maven checks what the venue provides and adds booths, receivers and technicians where the program requires them, so that interpreters and technicians work together from setup to the final session.
Microphones, projectors, screens and voting devices can be added to the interpretation system when an event requires them.
