Summer
Digital solutions for global reach
Market forces are better than government intervention. There are developing economies who started with tourism as a mainstay of the economy. But, as the economy develops, new industries, technology and approaches are the way to supplement tourism.
Fall
Diversify away from tourism only
Relying on one industry is risky. Maui is dependent on tourism to be a major factor in its growth. After the Lahaina fire, the number of tourists dropped dramatically and the economy really suffered. As we diversify the economy we will rely less on tourism and be in a better position to avoid these problems in the future.
Winter
We’re just getting started
Rather than just try to replace the tourist industry, a better strategy is to try and make tourism work better. Our goal here at Safe Travels is to engage, partner and work together to realize a future that is truly sustainable and equitable for all of Hawaii.
