The month of February saw another series of
diverse events ranging from our first Citywide meeting for 2019 to a variety of
sporting events such as volleyball, basketball and Futsal (indoor
soccer).
It was an honor to welcome back the American Heart Association’s 2019 International Stroke
Conference from February 6 – 8. The International Stroke
Conference is the world’s premier meeting dedicated to the science and
treatment of cerebrovascular disease. The conference included a multi-faceted
lineup of events, including a pre-conference nursing symposium, clinical
sessions, exhibitors, and more than 1,500 presentations from world-renowned
researchers and industry professionals spanning 21 categories that emphasize
basic, clinical and translational sciences. HCC first hosted the
International Stroke Conference in 2013, and it was great to welcome this
world-class meeting back to Hawai‘i,
Soon after, we got people’s hearts racing again
with the AAU Honolulu Grand Prix (volleyball) and Jam on It Tournament
(basketball) in our Exhibit Halls 2 & 3 for four days of sporting
action!
We then had three simultaneous events in our Exhibit Halls during the last
weekend of February. Featuring a cheerleading event in Exhibit Hall 1 (Athletic
Championships), the Amazing Comic Con Aloha in
Exhibit Hall 2 and the Hawaii Futsal Cup International Cup in Exhibit Hall 3.
