The Self Storage Hawai'i unConference
Learning & Sharing
Great things happen when you bring the brightest minds and the warmest people together in a beautiful place for a self storage conference. Spend time learning about today's most interesting self storage business challenges and opportunities. Then invent tomorrow's innovations together. Make good business. Make friends. Make memories. Enjoy the Aloha.
Mixing & Mingling
Registration for our self storage conference is limited to 100 participants, so everyone has a chance to get to know each other in more meaningful ways than possible in a standard conference. As an un-conference, we have the flexibility to adapt content and presentations to your interests. There is no place better for networking and business group gatherings than the Big Island of Hawai'i.
Registration
Registration closes on September 7, 2021!
Our Room Block closed August 20, 2021.
Stay for the entire week, or come for the main sessions. Our host hotel, the Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort and Spa offers a splendid location for opening your mind, relaxing your body, and soothing your spirit. We'll have self storage conference work sessions in the mornings and networking the rest of the day. Would you like to get a discount code that saves you money off of the cost of your full registration? Contact one of our sponsors. They'll have a code to give you that you can use.

COVID 19 and the un-conference
Save the date! We will be holding the Self Storage Hawai’i unconference October 17 to 23, 2021.
We have secured great room rates at our host hotel, The Waikoloa Marriott.
By the time October, 2021 arrives, we should be living in a new "normal" that allows for safe travel, and for safe, small business gatherings like ours.
The unconference will be the perfect place to figure out what our next "next" is going to be. Wear your face masks if you are not vaccinated, or if it is required by the local health department or the venue. Bring hand sanitizer. We can hold an event like this while doing everything we can to minimize transmission risks. We are going to need a gathering like this to regroup and move forward into the new world.
By October, 2021 the airline and hotel businesses will have many practices in place to make travel comfortable and comforting. The Hawai'i Department of Health is staying on top of the situation and issuing daily updates. Check in with the Hawai'i Department of Health for updates with this link.

Lisa will be there. Will you?
"The Self Storage Hawaii Un-Conference is the conference to go to. Not just because of the beautiful location in Hawaii, but for the real business connections that you make. I always felt that some of my biggest take-aways from the SSA conferences were from the people I met and talked to. Listening to other owners' experiences and knowledge is extremely beneficial.
Networking with a smaller group of people and doing fun outings makes strong bonds with these business connections invaluable. Learning about the ever evolving storage industry, making amazing business connections, and having fun growing your business wealth of information is the Self Storage Hawaii Un- Conference."

Howard will be there. Will you?
Howard Pryor attended the 2011 Self Storage Hawai'i unConference when he was a part of Barry Hoeven's organization. Today Howard is an independent developer and owner/operator. How has a deep and wide set of experiences in the self storage arena. You should spend time talking with him and sharing your experiences as well.
He opened a new SpareSpace Self Storage Center in Miami, FL in the Spring of 2020. It is a beautiful site and you should ask him to tell the story of how it cam to be. You can reach Howard Pryor through the SpareSpace website. Howard said, "you should be there in Hawai'i with us!"
Howard is also a kite-boarder. The wind on the Kona/Kohala coast is almost always good for kite-boarding. We are putting together a group that can go kite-boarding together at the unConfernece. Sounds fun, right?
Howard is also a discussion leader for one of our sessions, where we will explore how well aligned our business priorities are with our vendors, partners, and teams.
