Conclusion
 Latinos are driving economic and population growth in the U.S.
 On the global stage, the U.S. Hispanic market represents the largest highgrowth market opportunity
 The level of trade between the U.S. and Latin America requires a refocusing of foreign policy
 Latinos are still grossly underrepresented in media – this lack of
representation leads to negative perceptions about Latinos
 However, we have A LOT of work remaining on elevating Latinos to the
leadership ranks of business, finance, technology, academia and politics
