Oahu Genius Honors the HVCB Meet Hawaii Team and Hotel Sales Partners
At Oahu Genius, a trusted destination management company in Honolulu, Hawaii, we want to extend our deepest appreciation to the HVCB Meet Hawaii Team and the incredible sales teams at our partner hotels across the islands.
In the fast-paced world of Hawaii meetings and incentives, there’s a side of the industry few truly see. The HVCB Meet Hawaii Team and our hotel sales partners are the unsung heroes—spending countless hours traveling, flying, and being away from their families to bring corporate groups and event planners to Hawaii.
They are on the front lines of selling Hawaii as a destination, often enduring long flights, busy trade shows, and back-to-back meetings—all to create opportunities for companies like ours to showcase our services and deliver unforgettable experiences for clients.
We recognize the tireless efforts it takes to build and maintain these connections. The time, energy, and heart that goes into introducing planners to Hawaii and connecting them with partners like Oahu Genius is invaluable. These professionals are the bridge between Hawaii and the rest of the world—and their dedication fuels our industry’s success.
At Oahu Genius, we proudly support the HVCB Meet Hawaii Team and the hardworking sales professionals at our hotel partners. We see your hustle. We value your commitment. And we are sincerely grateful for everything you do.
This Is What Destination Management Really Looks Like
At Oahu Genius, we believe destination management is more than just event logistics—it’s about maximizing the value of Hawaii as a destination while protecting its culture, people, and resources.
Among all the benchmarks in DMAP (Destination Management Action Plans), we believe the most visible and measurable result is what the HVCB Meet Hawaii Team accomplishes by bringing in citywide group events.
These citywide programs are the gold standard:
- Thousands of attendees from around the world
- A minimum of two hotel properties utilized simultaneously
- Full use of the Hawai‘i Convention Center
- Average 3–5 days of organized programming by professional meeting planners
- Millions of dollars in positive economic impact across Hawaii’s tourism and local business sectors
These events touch every part of our visitor industry ecosystem—from hotel rooms and restaurants to transportation services, AV techs, entertainers, caterers, and beyond. The HVCB Meet Hawaii Team’s role in securing and supporting these events is nothing short of transformational.
This is the purest form of destination management—one that directly benefits our community, creates jobs, sustains businesses, and showcases the best of Hawai‘i to the world. And for that, they deserve our full support.
Mahalo for Believing in Hawaii
To everyone working behind the scenes and on the road: Thank you for promoting Hawaii. Thank you for believing in our islands, our culture, and our capacity to deliver world-class group travel experiences.
Our success as a destination management company on Oahu would not be possible without your partnership. You are the reason so many planners continue to choose Hawaii.
From all of us at Oahu Genius — Mahalo nui loa. We see you. We appreciate you. And we’re honored to work alongside you.
