On Sept. 30, 2010, board members from the New York Society of Association Executives (NYSAE) gathered for a meeting and reception at the Hawai`i Convention Center.
The Hawai`i Convention Center welcomed members of the New York Society of Association Executives (NYSAE) on Sept. 30, 2010, for a meeting and reception. Their decision to hold their board meeting and retreat in Hawai`i is a direct result of the partnership formed earlier this year with NYSAE. HCC representatives visited New York City in March to attend NYSAE’s MeetNY client/customer showcase, where qualified executives and planners were invited to attend complimentary events.
HCC’s partnership with NYSAE puts Hawai`i at the forefront of the New York metropolitan and tri-state area, which is the third-largest association market in the United States and a key market for Hawai`i as a destination.
