Investing in Hawaii's GTM Tech Leaders
Why Hawaii?
Hawaii's strategic position between the East and West makes it a gateway for businesses to expand and thrive. Recent momentum from Honolulu Tech Week, ThriveHI, Pi'iku Design, and Blue Startups signals a growing tech community. The East Meets West initiative fosters valuable connections, establishing Hawaii as a collaborative hub.
Building Startup Paradise
While there are ample opportunities for remote work (specifically for technical talent), there is a critical shortage of business and go-to-market (GTM) expertise which hinders our potential... This gap presents a unique chance for startups to attract and retain talent eager to contribute to our thriving ʻohana. Together, we can create a Startup Paradise where local entrepreneurs flourish and innovative solutions thrive.
Empowering Kama'aina
To strengthen our ʻohana, we must foster relationships that span across waters and embrace new economy trends. By cultivating a pipeline of go-to-market leaders, we empower kama'aina with the expertise needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving world influenced by AI and global dynamics. Together, we can nurture local talent and innovation, creating a sustainable economy where every startup has the support it needs to succeed.
