San Diego again will play host next year to a major Latino business conference.
ProXimo (next in Spanish) will debut in San Diego Sept. 18 – 21, at the Manchester Grand Hyatt in downtown San Diego.
The event is being organized by Gary Acosta, the co-founder and CEO of the National
Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals, and Nely Galan of Galan Entertainment, the former president of entertainment of the Telemundo network.
Acosta is one of the driving forces behind L’ATTITUDE, an annual Latino business
conference that has been held three times in San Diego. The most recent entry was this past
September, also at the Manchester Grand Hyatt. It attracted about 6,000 people.
A similar crowd is expected for ProXimo, with attendees from the U.S., Spain and Latin
America, said organizers.
“We’re not just creating an event; we’re creating a marketplace and a platform that empowers
Latino entrepreneurs and paves the way for generational wealth,” Acosta said. “This partnership with Nely Galan and Galan Entertainment represents our commitment to
providing attendees with elite content and opportunities for business connections and wealth-building strategies.”
Registration and information about the conference programming is expected to be available in January. Organizers said there will be a focus on real estate careers, investing, private equity, venture capital, technology, social media, sports and the entertainment industry.
“The Latino community holds untapped power – not just as consumers but as voters, creators,
and entrepreneurs,” said Galan. “We have often been underestimated. It is our time to use our
power to build wealth unapologetically. Together, we are creating a premier platform for Latino success.”
The event is being organized under the banner of AVANCE Global, a platform founded by
Acosta and Galan. For more information, visit AVANCE Global.
