NegociosNow Diciembre 2013 4 Diciembre 2008 www.negociosnow.com Viene de la página 3 According to the report, if existing Hispanic-owned businesses grew revenues and earned the average of all other Illinois firms, collectively Hispanic-owned businesses would increase revenues by more than $67 billion and would employ 200,000 more Illinois residents. This won't happen overnight and it won't happen without concerted effort to bridge that earnings gap. But if collectively we can make progress, one business at a time, the economic benefits for Illinois will be significant. THE CENTER FOR HISPANIC ENTREPRENEURSHIP That's why the Illinois Hispanic Chamber of Commerce is pleased to launch the Center for Hispanic Entrepreneurship (www.HispanicCenter.biz). The Center for Hispanic Entrepreneurship will provide unique business, economic development and entrepreneurial education programs to increase the success of Hispanic entrepreneurs. For example, in 2014 the Center for Hispanic Entrepreneurship will launch ENTERpreneur, an innovative program for high school students that seeks to activate the talent and natural entrepreneurial inclination of Hispanic youth. The program will help develop leadership and problem solving skills and will focus on college admission and success, helping build the next generation of Hispanic business leaders. cbof CHICAGO BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY FAIR Photo Brian Morowczynski Humir Construction Project Manager Juan Arreola poses with Operations Manager and nephew Hugo Ramirez at the company's equipment yard on Chicago's near southwest wise.
