Meetween was at #Interspeech2026 in Sydney with three papers: a spoken prompt dataset for testing speech-language models, a method that cuts code-switching ASR errors by almost 33%, and new metrics for simultaneous speech translation latency. #SpeechAI #HorizonEurope
📄 @luisabentivogli showed how a small amount of synthetic data cuts errors on code-switched words by almost 33%, with no loss on single-language speech. arxiv.org/abs/2606.21990

That's not a hypothetical. It's what the Meetween project is building.
On 5 June, Pi School's Managing Director Sébastien Bratières will take the stage at the TAUS Massively Multilingual AI Conference in Rome to present Meetween, the EU Horizon Europe project developing technology for multilingual, multimodal AI-powered meetings, where language and culture no longer become barriers.
The consortium behind Meetween includes Academic Computer Centre CYFRONET AGH, Fondazione Bruno Kessler - FBK, İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi, Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT), Zoom, Translated, and TAUS, the organiser of the event.
📍 Rome | 5 June, 11:15 | Day 2
