Based on wording here, it seems we are planning to guarantee these
people a presentation slot. I'm ok with that as I think this is a
strategic relationship which should be supported.<br>
<br>
There is potential to get one of the presenters to add comment about
what they plan to talk about, maybe as a quote. If someone wants to
introduce to these people, via email or similar, I'd be happy to
work with them to get the wording right.<br>
Otherwise, the text is good as it is to go out:<br>

<div dir="ltr">Would it make sense to focus more on the story
about bringing Pacific Islanders to the conference, to
highlight the fact that it's a regional conference and not
just focused on Aus/NZ? Might be an opportunity to get other
agencies & companies thinking about how they could also
contribute either by directly supporting attendees, as in
this case, or via our Good Mojo fund.</div>
