* '''Local Languages First''' — A major part of our enthusiasm for developing open source speech technologies like our Deep Speech speech recognition engine and Common Voice open data platform is that they can help communities create leading edge voice experiences in the languages that mean most to those communities, not just the ones that represent the largest commercial interests. [https://tehiku.nz/about/ Te Hiku Media], a non-profit New Zealand organisation, has been a contributing partner in our voice and speech work as part of their commitment to the revitalisation of Māori language and culture. They [https://tehiku.nz/te-hiku-tech/papa-reo/11261/te-hiku-media-awarded-13m recently won] a thirteen million New Zealand dollar award to build a multilingual natural language processing platform for many languages, starting with te reo Māori — the Māori language. Some of that grant will go to funding additional Deep Speech developers as a component of that platform. Congratulations Te Hiku Media!
* '''Tech Speakers Meetup''' — Mozilla Tech Speakers had their second 2019 meetup in Singapore over the weekend of November 2nd and 3rd, with twenty-eight volunteer evangelists from across Asia, Australia, and India (plus a few other countries) getting feedback from coaches on their lightning talks, attending workshops on Voice technologies and Developer tools, and having a professional photo taken for their bios. All those great Tech Speakers talks we hear about every week at the Mozilla Project Call and appreciate so very much take a lot of work behind the scenes to master new technologies, hone speaking skills, and share knowledge across the global Tech Speakers community.
