iFLYTEK Demonstrates AI Translation Solutions at the 2025 Boao Entrepreneur Forum, Advancing Seamless Global Communication

From December 2 to 5, the 2025 Boao Entrepreneur Forum was held in Boao, Hainan, under the theme "Linking Global, Leading the Future" Senior representatives from government agencies, Fortune Global 500 companies, China's Top 500 enterprises, leading corporations, academic and research institutions, and international organizations gathered to discuss global connectivity, openness, and industrial upgrading.

As the official AI translation partner of the forum, iFLYTEK provided professional and efficient AI-powered translation services to support the event, which brought together senior figures from government, business, and academia in China and abroad. Leveraging its industry-leading AI translation technologies, iFLYTEK's solutions—including iFLYTEK Spark Trans, iFLYTEK Smart Translator, and iFLYTEK Smart Recorder—supported real-time, accurate, and fluent cross-language communication throughout the forum, facilitating smooth exchanges among international participants.

During the forum, iFLYTEK Spark Trans, powered by the latest upgraded SPARK Simutaneous Interpretation LLM for speech-based simultaneous interpretation, provided real-time transcription, translation, and on-screen captioning services in Chinese, English, and Russian for the opening ceremony and the Executive Committee meeting of the Organization of Asia-Pacific News Agencies (OANA).

In Chinese–English simultaneous interpretation scenarios, the model achieved an initial response time as fast as two seconds, comparable to that of experienced human simultaneous interpreters. This significantly reduced the latency and mechanical delivery commonly associated with traditional machine translation, delivering a near-synchronous listening experience for participants throughout the event.

During the forum, iFLYTEK Smart Translator also provided face-to-face communication support for participants, enabling barrier-free multilingual interaction. In multinational meetings, discussions are often dynamic and fast-paced, while traditional translation tools may struggle to accurately distinguish between different speakers, leading to confusion in translated content and unclear attribution, which can affect both meeting efficiency and information accuracy.

To address this challenge, the iFLYTEK Dual-Screen Translator 2.0 introduced a speaker separation feature. In Chinese–English meeting translation mode, the device can intelligently identify different speakers and assign customized names to each speaker, effectively reducing misattribution in cross-language discussions and improving clarity in multilingual communication.

In addition, the device supports automated meeting summary generation and one-click sharing. Powered by the iFLYTEK Spark LLM, it identifies key discussion points to support more efficient multilingual collaboration in business meetings and exhibition settings.

To date, iFLYTEK Smart Translator has been used by more than one million users across over 200 countries and regions.The iFLYTEK Smart Recorder supported journalists at the forum by enabling efficient interviews and accurate on-site recording, including in large venues with complex acoustic conditions. The S6 series reduces more than 80 types of common background noise—such as keyboard typing and footsteps—and supports recording at distances of up to 20 meters, making it suitable for large conferences and multi-speaker business settings.

Building on reliable audio capture, the iFLYTEK Smart Recorder uses the iFLYTEK Spark to provide accurate speech-to-text transcription and advanced text processing, helping improve efficiency in professional settings. The device supports online speech transcription in 11 languages, 12 dialects, and two ethnic minority languages, as well as real-time interpretation between 10 languages and two ethnic minority languages.

From the literary reflections of Nobel laureate Mo Yan, to policy insights shared by government officials; from on-site interviews conducted by journalists, to forward-looking perspectives offered by business leaders—at this crossroads of ideas in Boao, iFLYTEK’s AI translation solutions delivered professional-grade accuracy, ensuring that every voice was clearly conveyed and every insight precisely understood.

At a pivotal moment as Hainan Free Trade Port enters the final phase of island-wide independent customs operations, the convening of the 2025 Boao Entrepreneur Forum carried particular significance. Through its AI-powered translation services, iFLYTEK enabled clear and effective dialogue among participants from different countries, supporting practical cooperation in a complex global environment. Beyond improving communication efficiency, these technologies illustrate how independently developed Chinese AI can contribute to cross-border collaboration and broader international engagement.

As global integration deepens, addressing information gaps has become a practical prerequisite for companies operating across borders. iFLYTEK will continue to advance its AI translation technologies and applications to support international forums, diverse industries, and individual users, enabling clearer communication and more effective collaboration across languages and regions.
