Hawaii established a Professional Women in Building Council in 2024, led by BIA Hawaii President Hinano Nahinu. PWIB is the voice of women in the building industry — dedicated to promoting industry professionalism and supporting members at the local, state and national levels. Through education, professional development and networking opportunities, PWIB helps members acquire and develop invaluable leadership and business management skills that boost career success. The council also offers various national recognition programs, scholarships, grants and awards.

The Hawaii Council provides women with a fantastic platform for networking, growth, and fostering diversity in the construction industry across the State of Hawaii.
