Building a Brighter Future for Hawaii - What you can do to enable technology in Hawaii

Recently I gave a presentation regarding how we could build a brighter future in Hawaii by enabling technology.

If you look at it, Hawaii is a very unique place. We live in one of the most beautiful places in the world, we have very low unemployment, and yet most companies today run on 20 year old technology!

Why is that???

If we were to just contrast the mainland with what we see here in Hawaii we see a major trend to just keep the status quo. We have innovated in areas, but in general most companies have either limited their technology investment, and continue to try and go down what has been tried and true. Even though the entire market is shifting.

Why should you care?

It is really simple in Hawaii there is a high cost of living and without technology:

• Companies cannot grow.
• If they cannot grow... they will not hire
• If they cannot hire... they cannot improve revenues
• Without revenues, companies disappear and so do the jobs...

Think about it where do you want your kids to work?

The Excuses people make not for not doing anything:

• I am too busy...
• I am not an expert...
• We tried that before...
• Internal politics

Good Luck!
