Bill > SCR35

This concurrent resolution requests the Hawaii Technology Development Corporation (HTDC) to initiate planning for a Health Care Technology Hub in the Kakaako area of Honolulu, with the goals of advancing health care technology adoption and supporting the development of Hawaii's health care workforce. The resolution highlights the potential transformative impact of technologies like virtual reality, augmented reality, and generative artificial intelligence in healthcare, and notes that the proposed hub would be located near the University of Hawaii at Manoa John A. Burns School of Medicine and the University of Hawaii Cancer Center. The HTDC is specifically requested to develop the hub in consultation with these institutions, the Hawaii Community Development Authority, and the Hawaii Broadband and Digital Equity Office. Furthermore, the resolution asks the HTDC to submit a conceptual plan, including potential legislation, to the Legislature by late 2025, and directs that copies of the resolution be transmitted to the key stakeholders involved in the project's planning and potential implementation.
