Current Partners
Our sports program thrives through strategic collaborations with a broad network of aligned partners that share our vision for sustainable sports tourism. We proudly work alongside major professional sports leagues, national athletic governing bodies, and collegiate conferences to bring championship-level competition to our islands while driving year-round visitation. Our ecosystem also relies heavily on key partnerships with global endurance race organizers, ocean sports federations, and Native Hawaiian community associations that champion heritage athletics. By uniting public agencies, private sector stakeholders, hospitality leaders, and non-profit community groups, these collaborative efforts help fund youth outreach, elevate local traditions, and deliver lasting economic and cultural benefits across every island.
