NEW YORK, NY – October 3, 2014 – (HISPANICIZE WIRE) – In recognition of the growing synergies between New York Tri-State Latino influencers from the industries of marketing, blogging, journalism, film, music and tech, the Hispanicize companies today announced the launch of the Hispanicize NYC-Tri State city group.
“Hispanicize NY is unlike anything anybody has ever seen in the U.S. Hispanic space because it’s multi-industry focused, it regularly features physical gatherings that will be fun and creative and it complements and doesn’t compete with other Latino organizations”
The Facebook-based Hispanicize New York Tri-State city group is a one-of-a-kind, ongoing platform for Latino influencers from these industries to routinely connect with each other online and, equally importantly, in person. Similar Hispanicize city groups also launched in Miami and Los Angeles this week.
“Hispanicize NY is unlike anything anybody has ever seen in the U.S. Hispanic space because it’s multi-industry focused, it regularly features physical gatherings that will be fun and creative and it complements and doesn’t compete with other Latino organizations,” Manny Ruiz, chairman of the Hispanicize companies collective that owns Hispanicize 2015, the Latina Mom Bloggers network, Hispanicize Wire and the Hispanic PR Blog as well as a large interest in Being Latino. The Hispanicize NY city group is opened to Latino and non-Latinos alike.
THE LEADERSHIP TEAMS
Hispanicize New York is being helmed by George “Urban Jibaro” Torres of Sofrito Media Group and the Latino Startup Alliance; Vanessa Smith of Impacto Latin News; Calixto Chinchilla, co-founder of the New York International Film Festival; Mike Warner of Egami Consulting Group; and Leaura Luciano of EverSoPopular.com.
Each of the city group leaders is responsible for managing the local Facebook-based group and will also host monthly gatherings, which among other things will range from private jam sessions with LATIN GRAMMY winning artists to fishing tournaments and much more.
“We are inclusive, anti-clique and focused on making sure that every single Hispanicize NY activity always ties back to giving to the scholarship fund of HPRA Los Angeles,” said Ruiz.
