Negocios Now celebra a líderes hispanos de La Villita con su nueva edición y evento 'Los 26 de la 26' Tras una exitosa primera edición y evento en 2020, Negocios Now celebra nuevamente "Los 26 de la 26", una iniciativa para reconocer el liderazgo hispano en La Villita, considerada la "Capital Latina" en el Medio Oeste. A diferencia de la primera edición donde se reconocieron a fundadores y líderes consagrados, en esta ocasión, los 26 seleccionados son principalmente jóvenes líderes en diferentes campos, incluyendo aquellos que siguen la tradición emprendedora de sus padres. Los 120 asistentes al evento deberán presentar pruebas de su vacunación contra el Covid-19. Founded in 2007, Negocios Now is a national award-winning publication and the Midwest’s most dynamic news source for growing Hispanic businesses, focusing primarily on business owners, entrepreneurs and economic development in the Latino community. In 2014, Negocios Now launched the first "Who's Who in Hispanic Chicago" to recognize Hispanic leadership in the Chicago metropolitan area.  In 2015, the publication inaugurated the first "Latinos: 40 Under 40" for our generation of  young Latino leaders.
