FREE FOR MAUI NUI, October 30-31st, 2026

This Foundational Technical Assistance (FTA) Workshop is designed for Maui County businesses, entrepreneurs, cultural practitioners, nonprofits, stewardship organizations, and community initiatives interested in better understanding and engaging with Hawaiʻi’s visitor industry.

Content of the workshop’s two days complement one another, but participants may register for either day individually or attend both.

Day 1: Finding Your Place in Hawaiʻi’s Visitor Industry
Understanding Hawaiʻi’s Visitor Industry, Visitors & Opportunities

Learn how Hawaiʻi’s visitor industry works, where opportunities exist, who Hawaiʻi’s visitors are, and what influences their choices. Through practical activities and insights from industry professionals, you’ll identify the visitors who are the right fit for what you offer and strengthen how you reach and communicate with them.

Day 2: Creating Visitor Products, Experiences & Opportunities
Designing Things Visitors Want While Staying Rooted in Place, Community & Culture

Explore how to develop or strengthen visitor-facing products and experiences that advance your goals while remaining rooted in Hawaiʻi as a place, community, and culture. Work through practical considerations including product and experience design, pricing and viability, and visitor engagement.

FTA is part of HTA’s Technical Assistance & Capacity Building (TACB) programs, supporting the development of a more regenerative visitor industry by strengthening local businesses and nonprofits, fostering meaningful visitor experiences, and helping ensure tourism creates greater value for Hawaiʻi’s people, places, and culture.

Our candidate meet-and-greet mixer earlier this month was a fun one! For those who arrived early, Hawaii Farm Project provided a custom tour and tasting with one of the sweetest and demanded of products from Hawaii, Maui Gold Pineapple 🍍. Endorsed candidates met members at the Hali’imaile General Store in the private outdoor venue space where decadent meat appetizers, veggies and the famous upside-down pineapple cake was served. In addition, a very special allied member Shaka Mobile Bar sponsored this mixer hosting wines and customized cocktails by Haliimaile General Store mixologist, adding that final touch to our endorsement night!

Mahalo to everyone who supported this mixer, shopped local with our allied members and who took part in the political endorsement process! Our voice in this election shapes Maui’s economic health, community health and future of our next generation!

If you have not already, get out and vote on November 3rd and shape Maui with us.

Lastly, mahalo to our beloved photographers 📷Maui PhotoHub and Hawaii Photographer !

On November 9 & 10, you are invited to a FREE summit at the Hyatt Regency Resort in Ka’anapali!

Connect with water conservation professionals, LEED experts, facility/operations managers, and DWS staff to learn and share best practices; understand how reducing water use can build resilience and help the bottom line; and earn recognition for current and future water conservation efforts.

Local and national experts will provide valuable insights on topics including reducing water use and costs while enhancing the guest experience, using water efficiently to maintain a beautiful landscape, optimizing water use in cooling towers and pools, and understanding opportunities for on-site water reuse. Participants will also learn how third-party certification programs such as LEED can help with water efficiency and other sustainability goals, especially for those aspiring to demonstrate industry leadership and reduce water consumption by 30% or more.

Additionally, DWS will offer guidance on complying with Water Use Conservation Ordinance 5929 and provide attendees with early access to a free toolkit designed to help the lodging industry reduce water use. The toolkit will include water assessment guidance and checklists, technical reference materials on major water-using systems, and educational materials for staff, vendors, and guests.
