Now in its eighth year, Hispanicize 2017 Week is the largest annual event for Latino trendsetters and newsmakers in digital content creation, journalism, marketing, entertainment and tech entrepreneurship.

Latin Life Denver is pleased to be attending for the fourth year in a row this incredible event that brings together so many creative and fun loving people that help shape the direction and growth  of Latin Life Denver Media

The event kicked off on Monday, April 3rd, with a variety of over 20 workshops covering everything from Latina empowerment to town halls  discussing the practical and challenging implications of the recent political climate, recent demographic trends, the latest on what some call Total Market Evolved and the evolution of U.S. Hispanic and multicultural social and digital strategies.

Lunch featured NASA’s own Evelyn Miralles  who talked about how few people in the world have the foresight about how virtual reality and augmented reality are going to disrupt the way we learn, shop, create content and engage people with marketing communications..  In her multimedia keynote, Miralles gave us a rare, inside scoop at the cutting-edge worlds of virtual reality and augmented reality.

The evening featured a spectacular fashion show before everyone hopped on buses to the Perez Art Museum Miami in South Beach for a private live concert  by Juanes and the advance screening of his new Visual Album “Mis Planes Son Amarte”. Juanes, is a rock musician from Medellín, Colombia.

His politically-minded solo debut Fijate Bien (Take a good look) (2000) after Ekhymosis disbanded, earned him three Latin Grammys. The follow-up, Un Día Normal (A Normal Day) was a platinum mega-hit in Latin America and dominated that year’s Latin Grammys, where he was nominated for and won five awards including Song of the Year and Album of the Year.
In the 2005 Latin Grammys, Juanes won three additional awards to his nine previous Grammy awards. He took the award for Best Rock Song for Nada Valgo Sin Tu Amor (I’m Worthless Without Your Love), Best Rock Solo Album for Mi Sangre (My Blood) and Best Music Video for Volverte a Ver (To see you again).

Overall, Hispanicize 2017 Week will feature more than 200+ speakers in 100+ sessions, workshops, fireside chats and keynotes and a private concert by Latin super star Juanes. Hispanicize 2017 also includes the 2nd annual DiMe Summit, the 4th annual Positive Impact Awards gala and the 3rd annual Tecla Awards.
