We help the people of Hawaiʻi have the economic means to thrive in Hawaiʻi by creating access to high-paying jobs.

We are building a more equitable and innovative technology sector in Hawaiʻi by developing a strong community of local technologists grounded in local values.

Piʻikū means  “transpiration”

– the process by which water that has been absorbed through plant roots and nourished leaves rises into the atmosphere, returning into the water cycle.

It also means to climb or ascend.

We take our cues from our home, Hawaiʻi, and its ʻike to build regenerative systems that not only help our participants ascend to new heights, but also contribute back to the local technology ecosystem.

And Co. isn’t short for “company.”

It’s the beginning of all our favorite words - collaborate, cooperate, community, conspire. It’s an invitation to create with us. To build something new, exciting, and bigger than all of us.
