3rd Annual Latino Opportunity Summit
Nuestra Voz, Nuestro Futuro, Our Voice, Our Future
¡HICA! is proud to present the inaugural Latino Opportunity Summit in Birmingham, Alabama. This groundbreaking event spotlights the economic impact and mobility of Latinos across Central Alabama, focusing on career pathways, education, entrepreneurship, workforce development, and community leadership.
This summit is more than an event—it's a movement driving Latino-led prosperity, economic opportunity, and regional growth in Alabama.
Since 2000, Alabama's Hispanic or Latino population has grown from 78,445 to 290,096 individuals. This growth has been especially transformative in the Birmingham metro area, where Latinos are fueling economic expansion through entrepreneurship, skilled labor, professional services, and community innovation.
