introductory presentation


Explanation:
Norstedts Ord gives both presentation and announcement, http://www.ord.se/oversattning/engelska/?s=påannons&l=SVEENG
but I think presentation fits the context better here. Announcement sounds more like radio and presentation more like TV.

Would not 'announces' work as well in this context? It seems unnecessary to use more.
