If you are responsible for
business meeting or incentive
planning, consider these reasons
why you should organize your next
meeting in Hawaii: |
Attendance Soars
Hawaii's appeal to travelers worldwide
is a natural attendance enticement. Exceptional
year-round climate, averaging 77 degrees,
exotic yet with all the ease of doing
business in the U.S., absent language
and currency barriers, unique cultural
programs and activities, outstanding facilities,
accommodations and value are all attendance
builders.
Crossroads of
the Pacific
With a strategic mid-Pacific location
that enables people to conduct business
with New York and Singapore in the same
business day, a century of experience
in foreign trade and investment, and a
skilled multi-cultural workforce that
draws strength from East and West, Hawaii
is unique as a center of commerce with
global appeal. Hawaii's tropical paradise
image often overshadows its reputation
as a vibrant business destination and
a highly competitive meeting destination.
Conducting business forums at the Crossroads
of the Pacific can reap global benefits
to organizations.
Exceptional Facilities
At the deluxe $350 million Hawaii Convention
Center, on Oahu, tomorrow's technologies
- including fiber optics, simultaneous
translation booths and satellite video
conferencing are in place today to make
business events run more smoothly than
ever. The facility is as beautiful as
it is functional and convention organizers
are surprised at how competitively price
this superb center, accommodating from
500 - 30,000, really is. In addition,
there are an abundant selection of conference
centers at major resort hotels throughout
the Islands, providing innumerable options
for smaller meetings, conventions and
incentive events.
Exceptional Accommodations
Hawaii has more than 70,000 hotel rooms
on six islands ranging from the most luxurious
to the economical. On Oahu, there are
more than 30,000 rooms, 10,000 committable
within a one-mile radius of the Hawaii
Convention Center. Meeting organizers
are often surprised at the exceptional
values they will find in hotel accommodations.
A Sense of Security
Hawaii's rich cultural mix is accompanied
by a surprising low incidence of big-city
crime. Honolulu has the lowest rate of
violent crime of any U.S. city with more
than 500,000 people.
Cultural Attractions
and Activities
Meeting and convention attendees and incentive
travelers will enjoy the exotic and warm
Hawaiian culture, discovering the many
museums, street fairs and festivals, and
exploring the vast array of sophisticated
dining and shopping options available
throughout Hawaii, on the Islands of Kauai,
Oahu, Molokai, Lanai, Maui, and the Big
Island of Hawaii. And, of course, there
are scores of fabulous beaches, water
sports of every variety and some of the
world's most scenic championship golf
courses to choose from.
