Maui Springboard Hosts Business Development Webinars
By Sonia Isotov
Every month, local business leaders and experts share a broad range of information and experience geared for a Maui audience via free, online web conferences facilitated in partnership with MauiSpringboard.com.
MauiSpringboard.com is a new online business community similar to LinkedIn but focused on networking Maui County professionals. Currently, MauiSprinboard.com boasts 154 members.
