This year marks the10th anniversary for the Silicon Valley Latino Leadership Summit (SVLLS). The event will event will be on May 4, 2019 at the Stanford Faculty Club, 439 Lagunita Drive, Stanford, CA 94305
This year’s theme is “Looking Back, Moving Forward: The Latino Future of Silicon Valley.” Latinos already comprise the largest ethnic group in California. By 2030, Latinos are projected to become 43 percent of California’s population. In terms of demography, the future is Latino. But will demography necessarily translate into a more diverse workforce, especially in the boardrooms, in the C-suite, and among the entrepreneurs poised to create influential and scalable startups? The occasion of the summit’s tenth anniversary allows us time to reflect upon the advances Latinos have made in the past decade while tackling the challenges that remain consistent and seemingly evergreen.
As always, the SVLLS is an exclusive opportunity to network with top executives, changemakers and thought leaders in our valley and beyond. By participating in the SVLLS, you are not only building and strengthening new relationships with colleagues across various sectors but also building a community of professionals that will make the Latino Future a reality. Transform your future and the future of other Latinos – Es Tiempo!
