This virtual event is a project of the Hawaii Philippines Business & Economic Council, a nonprofit organization incorporated in 2011 whose primary mission is to create a forum for the exchange of information and direction between Hawaii and the Philippines, to promote business & economic development, and advocate for Hawaii residents who consider both the Philippines and Hawaii as home.
This year, 2021 is also a landmark year—a time of recovery from the pandemic that changed the world, where technology has allowed us to dialogue and share experiences despite the restrictions imposed by COVID19. It also marks the 75th Anniversary of diplomatic relations between the US and Philippines, and Filipino American History Month is celebrated in October, so it is timely to commemorate the links that bind the Philippines and Hawaii in a format that allows inclusive participation. We hope you can join us.
