Thank you for signed up for the Energy Ventures Series in Honolulu. Tonight’s meeting will be a bit different, there is a chance to see the upcoming start ups of Honolulu make their pitches. This provides a great networking opportunity to meet those who are already familiar with the start up process locally and to see what makes for a great pitch for your own future start up.

So please meet up with us at HonNewTech: Double Threat Pitch Off at the YWCA at 1040 Richards Street, Honolulu, HI 96813. I will also be looking for students at the normal location at Sultan Ventures before heading down at 5:45.
