As it is aimed at journalists, always looking for some excitement, I would put a bit more ‘expectations’ in the text, like: this will be the landmark event, you should be there etc., illustrated by the big dilemma’s of the moment: how to have impact, how to make this work, how to make sure governments connect and stay connected etc.

As you’ll see, it’s largely based on the existing promotional materials, but my two main goals were to keep it short (one page max) and to make it understandable to anyone with even the slightest interest in the topic (so no jargon or references to legal texts). Could you take a look at see if this is appealing enough for press purposes? Your comments would be very welcome. I also put it in the dropbox under the marketing-folder for the conference.
