Develop the professional skills of writers, including those who write for an education audience
Seek to grow export markets for New Zealand published content
Demonstrate innovation in the creation and distribution of NZ published content
Use online platforms to enhance the profile of New Zealand publishing and/or published content, including to international/export markets
