5:00pm : Dinner + Captains on Deck
Imagine a huge lobby filled with Polynesian business owners who are "Captains" that have successfully navigated the seas of business. At their tables, they will share their experience and knowledge with anyone interested in their field. Imagine the sight of all these Polynesian Captains on deck, mentoring the next chapter of sailors!
Dinner will be served at 5:00pm and throughout the night for free, so bring your family to join us in supporting our Polynesian entrepreneurs.
