Our vision: we envision lives fulfilled in a vibrant economy. Our mission: we lead and inspire innovation in business, education, and community. It wasn’t that long ago when maui county’s economy was dependent upon two economic sectors — agriculture and tourism — industries that were constantly vulnerable to forces beyond our control. Then in 1982, community, business and elected leaders created the maui economic development board, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to achieving a balanced economy and more rewarding choices for our residents. The medb team worked tirelessly with an extensive network of public, private and nonprofit partners to build homegrown solutions to countywide problems. Priority was given to honoring our community’s environmental and cultural values as we sought to transform education, prepare a workforce for the information age, and build community dialogue and consensus about our future.
