Black Book 2023: 416 Hawai‘i Executives You Should Know
The most comprehensive Black Book in more than a decade profiles many of the state’s leading business and nonprofit leaders.
Welcome to the 26th edition of Black Book, the most comprehensive roundup of Hawai‘i’s influential business and nonprofit leaders. This year’s edition features 416 executives – the largest number we’ve profiled in at least 15 years.
From international corporations to popular local brands, from health care networks to credit unions, from large nonprofits to luxury resorts, Black Book tells you all about the people who are running them.
The 416 profiles provide quick information about their professional and personal lives, as well as a who’s who of the people running every important sector in the state: construction and development, education, energy, finance, health care, insurance, nonprofits, real estate, retail and wholesale, tourism, technology, transportation and more.
With 55 more profiles this year than last, many of the executives are new to Black Book 2023. And many sections have grown significantly from last year, including finance, nonprofits, retail/wholesale and the tourism/leisure industry.
We welcome others who would like to be in future editions. Black Book is comprised of leaders of Top 250 companies and nonprofits in the state. That annual ranking is based on gross revenues from the previous year, which Hawaii Business Magazine collects via surveys and independent research. All executives on the Top 250 list are invited to participate in Black Book.
