Inauguration, Member Recognition and Generational Award Celebration
Each July, members and guests are invited to offer congratulations to the incoming Chair of the Board and the newly elected Officers and Directors. The Outgoing Chair is also recognized for their fearless leadership over the past 12 months.
The Chair also selects the Outstanding Member of the Year for their significant contributions to the Chamber and the Chamber staff selects a "Kuroko Award" winner for a member who deserves recognition for working behind the scenes.
The event also honors a member company with the Generational Award for their significant contributions to the growth and development of Hawaii's business and community sectors over two or more generations of ownership.
