Center for Hispanic Entrepreneurship

09/23/2022

Si se Puede! National Hispanic Summit will take place on Friday September 30th at the Tomas Rivera Center at UTEP and virtually. The conference will host Hispanic leaders from all business and professional backgrounds to discuss removing barriers, changing mindsets, taking a new seat at the table and how to grow sustainable businesses. Our Hispanic population is now estimated at over 62 million-over 18% of the US total population and representing the largest diversity segment in our country. Our communities will be the backbone of the economic growth for years to come and we must focus on growing our leadership skills. I invite everyone to sign up to attend the event virtually or in person. You won't want to miss it! Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! And check the comment section for the registration link.

Happy first day of the week!

I bring you this quote from Bill Gates, which explains that the characteristics of each other are different, but not the outcome. It is necessary to stop blaming the world, circumstances, or other people when learning from your failures. You must reflect on your mistakes as soon as possible.

Failure is an inevitable part of life! Start learning from your mistakes!
