New Generation Latino Consortium Conference.

The New Generation Latino Consortium, the only organization of its kind dedicated to educating and informing the business and entertainment worlds about the importance of the New Generation Latino (NGL) market, is hosting the ‘NGLC Media, Marketing & Entertainment Conference’ at the Harvard Club of NYC on Monday April 5, 2010.

Presented by mun2, Telemundo’s New Generation Latino TV network, the one-day conference will take place from 9:00am until 6:00pm at The Harvard Club of NYC located at 35 W44th Street between 5th and 6th Avenues in Manhattan. Representatives from featured co-sponsors MTV-Tr3s and Sí TV will also be on hand to exclusively discuss New Generation Latinos’ impact in the fields of media, marketing and entertainment. The day will kick off with a special keynote address by CNN anchor, Soledad O’Brien, followed by three exciting panel discussions, a celebrity sit-down with actor/comedian John Leguizamo and writer/director Franc Reyes, a catered attendee luncheon, a special research keynote and Hennessy cocktail networking reception. HispanicAd.com will serve as the NGLC’s exclusive trade media partner with uStream also participating as the LIVE video outlet that will feature portions of the conference online throughout the day.

“When we first started the NGLC back in 2002, the New Generation Latino (NGL) audience was just beginning to be noticed. In the years that have followed, thanks to the dedication of those in the NGL media and entertainment fields such as our sponsors and panelists, we’ve come a long way. Given New Generation Latinos’ critical role in shaping the face of this country, I expect there to once again be some very insightful and engaging discussion taking place on April 5th at the Harvard Club of NYC. As the only Latino business conference of its kind, NGLC is not one to be missed,” says David Chitel, NGLC Founder and Chairman.

Keynote, CNN’s Soledad O’Brien states, “As a New Generation Latina, I can appreciate first-hand what the NGLC conference is all about. Hopefully organizations and events like this help to publicly recognize the diverse Latino population living in the U.S. and play a meaningful role in getting our stories told.”

“As the leading Young Latino American brand, mun2 is excited to partner with NGLC Media and entertainment thought-leaders on a conference that delves into the heart of one of America’s most fascinating conversations…The Next Generation Latino,” says Jacqueline Hernandez, Chief Operating Officer for Telemundo. “In this new decade, for many businesses this consumer is the new definition of the sweet spot.”

Michael Schwimmer, Sí TV CEO said, “We are excited to partner with the NGLC Marketing, Media & Entertainment conference to celebrate the powerful and lucrative New Generation Latino audience. Our television network is 100% focused on serving this community, so it’s great to see the NGLC’s success in bringing this conference together to focus on the importance and influence of New Generation Latinos, the media they consume, and the opportunity they represent for advertisers.”

Conference attendees will learn more about the New Generation Latino population and its critical importance within the U.S. Latino marketing mix and will have the opportunity to interact all day with companies from the Latino media, marketing and entertainment fields, Fortune 500 executives, general and Latino market ad agency executives, celebrities and various international and national press outlets. Unique sponsorship opportunities are still available for those who would like to have a featured presence at the conference.
