From Afternoons, 1:20 pm on 27 May 2022

The Prime Minister has managed to nail down a meeting with US President Joe Biden and his deputy Kamala Harris during her US trip.

She's also talking to executives at some of the world's biggest companies.

Stephen Jacobi, formerly with the New Zealand United States council, now executive director of the New Zealand International Business Forum, talks to Wallace about the importance of this trip.

PM Jacinda Ardern received an honorary law doctorate from the Boston University, and gave a keynote speech titled 'Democracy, disinformation and kindness' at the graduating ceremony.
