How do we build Hawaiʻi’s future in a way that cares for our ʻāina, creates opportunity for our people, and looks ahead? Join us for one of the key events of Hawaiʻi Tech Week 2026 - an evening that brings together the people, partnerships, and ideas helping shape Hawaiʻi’s next chapter. Hosted by Hawai‘i Technology Development Corporation (HTDC), this gathering is rooted in a simple belief: Hawaiʻi’s future can be both innovative and deeply grounded in place. As our islands look ahead, there is a big ocean of opportunity to build new pathways in innovative ocean technology solutions, coastal resilience, workforce development, and local enterprise, in ways that honor our communities, care for our resources, and strengthen our connection to broader Pacific. This evening is a chance to celebrate the momentum already building across the islands and to share a broader vision for what Hawaiʻi can create by 2030. It is about mālama for the places that sustain us, investments in innovators, and collaboration across sectors to build solutions that are both locally rooted and globally relevant.
