Topi Breaks Language Barrier to Enable Universal Conversations
Barcelona (PRWEB) November 20, 2013 -- Topi, a powerful mobile solution that addresses the needs of professional conference, meeting and event organizers as well as attendees, unveiled a breakthrough functionality for attendees to network with each other. Dubbed “Instant Translations,” this innovative capability enables Topi users to chat with one another, writing and receiving messages in their native language. Raising the industry bar, Topi’s functionality instantly translates over 60 languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Hindi, Greek and Russian. Topi aims to make conversations and connections more meaningful, regardless of location or language.
“We created Topi based on research about how people build personal relationships,” commented David Aubespin, Topi’s co-founder and CEO. “People in real life feel more comfortable and emotionally connected to others when they have mutual interests. Topi brings these scenarios to life for participants of conferences and events. Now we’re really excited to offer users instant translations reducing a significant barrier to networking and allowing users to communicate even when they have no fluency in other languages.”
Mobile technologies are dramatically improving how business professionals network at events and conferences. Topi was built from the ground up to converge mobile and engagement technologies in a way that has enabled it to be recognized increasingly as the leading tech innovator in the event industry. While other event solutions offer static versions of the event content on mobile, Topi finally brings real engagement features to the event industry.
Topi recognizes the value of a conference or event is also its audience. Topi’s solution was designed to increase interactions and optimize engagement by way of its intelligent “PeopleRank” functionality and industry-leading geo-fencing capabilities – to name a few. Other unmatched features include real-time surveys, on-the-fly analytics, audience-driven Q&A, interest-based chat groups, etc. And unlike other offerings that require a user to download a new app for each event, Topi is the de facto app for any event.
Topi Gaining Steam — Tapped as Official Event App by Major Brands
Since Topi launched last fall, it has quickly climbed to the top and been adopted as the official event app by many brand names in the technology industry, including: Samsung’s inaugural Developers Conference, Google for Entrepreneurs, The Thiel Foundation’s Under 20 Summit, SXSW Tech Meetup 2013, New York Tech Meetups and American Express Marketing Mixers. Topi is also used and touted within the event industry with leading outfits such as: Plan Your Meetings, Convene and the world’s largest conference for conference organizers - The Global Meetings and Events Expo.
Topi’s capabilities were recently showcased when InfluencerCon used it as the official app for its 5-city global conference. Taking place simultaneously in Mumbai, Berlin, London, São Paulo and New York City, the event organizers, sponsors and attendees across these international locations were able to connect and interact with each other using Topi’s advanced geo-fencing and social capabilities.
