Congress Rental Network APR Partners Get Together
Who we are
Congress Australia, the leading provider of simultaneous interpreting and conference technology solutions in the Asia-Pacific, was proud to support and participate in the APR Partners Get Together, hosted by Congress Singapore.
​
This annual gathering brings together regional Congress Rental Network (CRN) partners to align strategies, share innovations, and strengthen collaboration. The 2025 edition also provided a live platform to showcase the latest advancements in AI-powered interpretation, Bosch Dicentis conference systems, and integrated hybrid participation technology.
About the APR Partners Get Together
​​
Held in Singapore, the APR Partners Get Together featured a fully integrated conference environment designed and delivered by Congress Singapore. The setup combined advanced AI interpretation with Bosch Dicentis technology, allowing real-time interpretation directly through the conference microphone units. Participants could select their preferred language via the built-in channel selector, ensuring seamless access to content in multiple languages.
​
Delegates used NFC-enabled name cards to trigger automatic name display on electronic nameboards and receive individualised microphone configuration. This reduced administrative handling, improved session flow, and enhanced the professional look and feel of the event.
​
The Dicentis microphones were also integrated with Avonic PTZ cameras for automatic speaker tracking. This ensured the active speaker was always in focus for both onsite and remote attendees, supporting the hybrid nature of the conference.
Technology showcase
​
A highlight of the day was the live demonstration of the latest E-Nameboard model. This system offered:
​
-
Seamless integration with PTZ cameras for real-time name display updates
-
Automatic speaker tracking for a dynamic viewing experience
-
An improved technician interface for faster setup and adjustments
​
The NFC-based seating allocation and automatic nameboard display were particularly well received, with delegates noting the intuitive operation and ease of language selection. These features reinforced the reliability and user-friendliness of the technology in a live setting.
Collaboration and Strategic Vision
In addition to the technical demonstrations, the event served as a strategic workshop. Sessions covered company performance reviews, lessons learned, and future opportunities for innovation. Discussions reinforced the shared vision of the Congress Rental Network and the important role of the APR group in driving multilingual service excellence across the region.
The Outcome
The APR Partners Get Together successfully showcased the operational strength, technical expertise, and collaborative spirit that define Congress Australia and its regional partners. Attendees left aligned on strategic goals, inspired by the latest technology, and committed to advancing unified multilingual event delivery.
