Purple Maiʻa Foundation

Ever wonder what innovative technology looks like when its done with an indigenous mindset? Imagine a voice recognition application that tells you what to do with local plants...an online marketplace for products made out of invasive plant species...an app that connects you to local volunteer opportunities and lets you earn points at your favorite local stores! 
 
Don't imagine, see them in action at the Indigenous Innovation Prototype Showcase along with 9 other teams working on similar things! 
 
Meet the founders, learn about their products, and give feedback so they can build the technologies you want to use! 
 
Show up in the first hour and get a free raffle ticket for a chance to win prizes worth over $150! 
 
And plan to stick around because lunch will be available at 12:00pm!
 
Hope to see you there!
