Hispanic Media Conferences 2010

Wednesday, February 10, 2010

In 2010 into 2011, we’ll see more Hispanic based media seminars and conferences nationwide.  It’s a personal pleasure to be a part of these exciting times.

What’s interesting in this short round up are the new players making their entrance as a result of a changing industry.  Also of note is the inclusion of new media within the agendas of established organizations.

This list is far from complete, as there are smaller seminars going on, as well as some larger that I’ve not added – it’s a start.  If you have any suggestions please feel free to add them to the comment’s section and we can create an ongoing list.

  • One exciting first, is Manny’s HispanicPR Conference that includes social media.  It’s a 3 day event in Texas, May 10-12. I think we’ll see this as an annual event for years to come.

  • Another ‘first’, is the Latino2 event in LA powered by Latinos In Social Media (LATISM) on April 30-May 2. This event will solidify the LATISM footprint in marketing and social media on the West Coast.To keep abreast of what is going on in LA you can follow these Tweeps and their daily discourse:  @giorodriguez @antonio @davidvallejo @laurag

  • LatinVision in NY has it’s annual Convergence conference Oct 4, that will discuss the future of Hispanic media.  This even bring in the major networks and agencies in NYC and beyond.

  • In Hispanic print and digital media is Portada’s event Sept. 23.

    Another first for Latinos – Hispanic Sports Summit – The Inaugural Hispanic Sports Summit is the first Conference of its kind for marketers looking to connect with Hispanics by tapping into a important passion point – Sports. It will examine how to use the power, popularity and passion of sports to reach the increasingly important Hispanic marketplace. Hispanics comprise the fastest growing segment of the U.S. population – they currently account for 15% of the total population, growing at 3 times the rate of the population overall – and represent an estimated trillion dollars in purchasing power.

    While boxing and soccer have been top sports for the Hispanic audience, the significant increase in popularity for football, baseball, basketball, racing, and other sports demonstrates that the audience is changing as it grows, and there is a wide array of opportunities to consider when developing plans.

    Senior executives will gather in New York for debate and discussion and will share best practices on using sports as a highly effective means of reaching the valuable Hispanic market. This will be a great opportunity for networking and a lively exchange of ideas and concepts.

    The event is designed to enable business executives to make informed decisions about investing in the Hispanic market via sports and the steps to create, manage and measure successful programs.

    The one day conference will be held in September in NYC.

    Gotcha…I have more to add and will definitely add yours. Do you have a link?

    I’ve actually only listed the one’s that have a heavy online presence and probably will list this as an ‘offline’ event.
