KUDO is a new technology company launched by Fardad Zabetian, founder and CEO of ISE exhibitor Media Vision – The Conference Company (Stand 3-C120), provider of interpretation equipment for such clients as the United Nations and the IMF/World Bank. Seeing an opportunity to expand the existing conference space and address a growing need for multi-lingual support in the global enterprise market, Zabetian created KUDO to help make high-quality language and conference services affordable and accessible through cloud-based technology.

“ISE is a show of many languages, and we’re happy to support the Closing Keynote experience with a multi-lingual platform that fosters true understanding and engagement,” Zabetian said. “At KUDO, we believe technology and language foster creativity and bring people together, and we hope our translation platform can help enhance the conversation between Tupac Martir and his audience.”
