Translation System
WoCoVA was glad to introduce a language translation system at the 9th edition in Valencia, Spain!
For the first time, the World Congress on Vascular Access had a system that translated the presentations at the congress. It provided real-time translations on the participants personal device. The attendees were able to read along in their desired language. This entailed that it was possible to follow the English presentations, in their own language, making the congress more accessible to everyone.
WoCoVA was pleased to introduce this system at the 9th WoCoVA in Valencia, Spain. Hereby, we were able to remove language barriers for people interested in attending the congress. This showed as WoCoVA welcomed people from a total of 58 countries from around the world.
