Last call, Hawaii. ⏰

Applications for preX Cohort 11 close TOMORROW - Sunday, May 3rd at 11:59pm HST.

If you’ve been thinking about it - this is your sign. Stop waiting. Start applying. It takes less than 10 minutes.

preX is more than a program. It’s a community of Hawaii entrepreneurs and business owners who show up for each other - across every island, every industry, every stage. Over 10 cohorts and 5 years, 150+ Hawaii businesses have gone through preX and walked away with not just the tools and strategies to grow, but a network of like-minded founders who get what it means to build something here in Hawaii.

preX alumni have generated $170M+ in revenue and raised $60M+ in funding - all while creating hundreds of jobs right here at home. That’s what happens when Hawaii entrepreneurs get the right support behind them.

This is 100% free. Built by Hawaii, for Hawaii. And it could be yours - but only until tomorrow night.
