Hawaii Food And Wine Festival: FEAST Summit

Cost: $250-$10,000

FEAST Summit is Hawaii’s Business, Hospitality & Leadership Summit, presented as part of the Hawaii Food & Wine Festival. Bringing together influential leaders, entrepreneurs, innovators, experts and emerging voices across business, hospitality, tourism, real estate, finance, culinary, technology, agriculture, media, government and community, FEAST explores the ideas and forces shaping Hawaii’s future.

At FEAST, food is where the conversation begins—but rarely where it ends. How will AI change the way people discover where to eat and travel—and what happens to the human voices we trust? What will it take to invest in and build the next generation of successful restaurants? How can locally grown food strengthen Hawaiʻi’s economy and communities? What role can food play in improving health? And as travelers increasingly experience destinations through what they eat, how can Hawaiʻi turn its culinary identity into an even greater competitive advantage?

Rooted in Food, Education, Agriculture, Sustainability and Tourism, this year’s conversations will explore leadership, investment, innovation, workforce, guest experience, culture, sustainability and growth—bringing together perspectives that don’t often meet in the same room.

EXPLORE SESSION TOPICS

What to Expect:

• The Conversations — A full day of thought-provoking keynotes, panels, and discussions—including Opening, Lunch and Closing plenary sessions—exploring leadership, investment, innovation, workforce, guest experience, culture, sustainability and growth, and how these forces are shaping Hawaiʻi’s businesses, communities and future.
• The People — Direct access to influential leaders and emerging voices across business, hospitality, tourism, real estate, finance, culinary, technology, agriculture, media, government and community—bringing expertise and perspectives that don’t often meet in the same room.
• The Connections — Opportunities throughout the day to exchange ideas, build relationships, and continue conversations beyond the stage.

Why Attend:

The ideas shaping Hawaii’s future aren’t happening in just one industry—and neither are the people moving them forward. Step outside your day-to-day to hear how leaders across industries are approaching the challenges and opportunities that affect your work, your business and your community. Come away with new perspectives, relationships worth continuing and ideas you can put to work long after FEAST ends.
