Rose:

Check out www.IAHMP.org for Hispanics in the Meetings, Events, Travel and Hospitality industry. IAHMP is not limited to Hispanics as anyone can join. We have chapters in Mexico, and Portugal.

Size of Hispanics in the USA is approx. 47 million if you include Puerto Rico. Hispanic Purchasing Power is over $900 Billion annually, making Hispanics the 8th most important market in the world. According to Hispanic Trends magazine (US Hispanic Chamber of Commerce) there are more Hispanics in the USA than all the people in Canada

Check out www.NCLR.org for data on the Hispanics in the USA.
Check out www.USHCC.org (US Hispanic Chamber of Commerce

I just completed some research for a client on hispanic/Latino on line presence and came up with a range of 17 to 22 million. This is growing considerably with the younger generations as a result of social networking sites. An interesting find during this research is that a growing number of Hispanics born in the US prefer web sites in Spanish, or popular English sites with a Spanish language option.

Hi Rose,

This company www.ventanabierta.com is a site that is dedicated to helping the Latino community within the USA with their current and/or future debt. By combining forces within the community they hope to procure government funding though programs like TALF to help Latinos in securing loans, etc. Check it out. It might be something that you are interested in.

Octavia
