SAN DIEGO, CA — July 23 — AVANCE Global today announced its acquisition of Hispanic Executive, the nationally recognized media platform that has chronicled the stories of Latino business leaders since 2007. The acquisition represents a defining milestone in AVANCE Global’s mission to build the country’s leading platform for Latino leadership, business, and economic advancement.

Together, AVANCE Global and Hispanic Executive now combine trusted media, executive storytelling, world-class convenings, strategic partnerships, and an engaged national community under a shared mission: accelerating Latino prosperity by connecting the leaders shaping America’s future.

For nearly twenty years, Hispanic Executive has profiled thousands of executives, entrepreneurs, founders, and innovators whose leadership has helped redefine corporate America. Its journalism has become one of the most respected archives of Latino business leadership in the United States.

Joining AVANCE Global expands that legacy while creating a platform capable not only of telling the stories of Latino leadership but also of bringing those leaders together to drive collective action.

“For years, Pedro Guerrero and I have shared a vision to highlight the outstanding contributions that Latinos are making to our economy and culture, said Gary Acosta, Founder of AVANCE Global. “With Hispanic Executive joining AVANCE Global, we will be sharing stories, building a massive business marketplace, and advancing the success and alignment of our community.”

The acquisition comes soon after Guerrero’s recent appointment as President and Chief Media Officer of AVANCE Global, where he now manages the organization’s media, content, partnerships, and strategic growth efforts.

As founder of Hispanic Executive, Guerrero has spent nearly two decades documenting one of the most significant economic stories in America: the rise of Latino leadership.

“When we launched Hispanic Executive in 2007, our mission was simple: make Latino leadership impossible to ignore,” said Guerrero.

“What began as a publication became a trusted platform, a community, and a place where leaders could see themselves reflected. Joining AVANCE Global allows us to build on that foundation in ways we simply couldn’t before.

Together, we now have media, community, experiences, partnerships, and leadership all working toward one shared agenda: accelerating Latino prosperity.”

The acquisition significantly expands AVANCE Global’s ability to serve executives, entrepreneurs, investors, athletes, creators, and emerging leaders through year-round storytelling, leadership programming, digital content, strategic partnerships, and flagship events.

Together, the organizations create one of the most comprehensive ecosystems dedicated to aligning the engine of the American economy.

The combined platform now reaches leaders across industries through:

● National business media and executive storytelling

● Signature leadership events and experiences

● Podcasts, video, and multimedia content

● Executive networking and relationship-building

● Strategic partnerships with corporations and institutions

● Leadership development and thought leadership opportunities

The acquisition reflects AVANCE Global’s broader vision of creating a connected ecosystem where businesses can connect with this dynamic community, where leaders can learn, build relationships, access opportunity, and collectively shape the future of the American economy.
