Mahalo For Stopping By!
We appreciate you taking the time to check out our site, especially as we are in the midst of a "remodel."
Presented by the Hawaii Venture Capital Association & ThinkTech Hawaii, this event included two panels that addressed changes in our local media following the merger of the Honolulu Advertiser and the Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
MCH President Chris Coneybeare was among those on the first panel. His remarks, entitled "Whether the reporting and commmentary by Hawaii's news media is properly reaching and informing the public," can be found in its entirety on our blog.
