Note
One spelling doing two jobs: the participle of a verb and a noun made from it. Either way it keeps the verb's need for an object, since every sense of introduce is transitive: you introduce a speaker, a new rule, an ingredient into a mixture. As a gerund it can head a whole subject, object and all (introducing solid foods too early). After be it forms the progressive: she was introducing the guests.
