Sorenson has been recognized alongside brands such as Adobe, Amazon, Disney, Samsung, and others for groundbreaking technology that profoundly impacts consumers, industries, and society
SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Sorenson, a global leader in communication solutions, is honored to announce that its groundbreaking AI-powered language solution for events, Sorenson Forum, was named to Fast Company’s 2024 Next Big Things in Tech in the Enterprise award category for “hardware, software, and services that change how business gets done.”
This year, a panel of judges evaluated over 1,300 applications to select the top 138 honorees.
Sorenson Forum is revolutionizing real-time communication by providing remote simultaneous interpreting and captioning across 25 languages and 45 dialects. This innovative solution empowers organizations to create fully inclusive, accessible events that bridge language barriers and connect diverse language audiences in real-time.
“We are honored to be recognized by Fast Company for our work to develop cutting-edge language solutions,” said Paget Alves, CEO of Sorenson, which connects more than 140 million conversations across all business lines each year. “Sorenson Forum is a testament to our commitment to innovation and our dedication to creating a more inclusive world.”
Sorenson Forum is designed to be user-friendly and accessible. Participants can easily join a session and select their preferred language, and the platform will automatically produce interpreted audio, captions, and transcripts in real-time. Whether it’s a global conference, a multinational team meeting, or a classroom setting, Sorenson Forum ensures that everyone can participate and understand.
“Sorenson Forum represents a significant leap forward in making real-time communication accessible to a global audience,” explained Ryan Sullivan, Chief Product Officer of Sorenson. “This innovative tool, with its intuitive design, user-friendly interface, and powerful AI model, paves the way for a more inclusive and connected world.”
Sullivan believes that accessibility goes beyond technical prowess – it’s about user experience. Unlike other multilingual tools, Sorenson Forum offers a more seamless experience for meeting hosts. Participation is effortless, with users simply joining a session using a PIN or QR code displayed by the host. And unlike other multilingual CART or interpretation tools, Sorenson Forum eliminates cost and complexity for both organizers and participants. Organizers simply share a link to a virtual meeting room, accessible on any browser, iOS, or Android device.
“In today’s globalized environment, communication transcends language barriers, empowering individuals to participate, learn, and thrive,” Sullivan said. “Sorenson is proud to be at the forefront of this technology.”
Sorenson Forum will be officially unveiled at the Language Lounge, a media-only event on Jan. 7, during CES 2025 in Las Vegas. This immersive experience will showcase the power of Sorenson’s language solutions and provide tech media with a firsthand look at the future of communication. The Language Lounge is a by-invitation-only event offering a rare, hands-on experience that will include:
