Unveiling Key Results from the 2023 Research Survey & Panel Discussions
The SOLE Forum is our signature research event for the latest and most comprehensive insights on Latino entrepreneurship. Join us in person or virtually as we share our research findings from the 2023 annual survey, including highlights on financing trends, access to government and corporate contracts, and more. In addition, in-person participants can join panel sessions that provoke deeper discussions around the research findings. Watch last year’s recording.
“Very informative about Latinos and Latinas business owners and the areas where focus and actions need to be taken in order to strengthen our community and economy.” – 2023 participant
If you’re unable to attend this event in person, there will be an option to view the research presentation via livestream. Details on how to tune in will be distributed to registrants at a later time.

Our in-person event brings together entrepreneurs, business leaders, policymakers, capital providers, and ecosystem builders committed to championing Latino-owned businesses.
