The 7th Annual Hispanicize 2016 event today unveiled the comprehensive agenda and top Latino and multicultural creators that are headlining its Digital Influencers Showcase and inaugural DiMe Summit. Co-presented by Prudential Financial, Hispanicize 2016 (www.HispanicizeEvent.com) is taking place April 4-8 in Miami’s InterContinental Hotel.
Curated by DiMe Media (formerly the Latina Mom Bloggers network), the digital influencers platform of Hispanicize 2016 features more social media A-listers and rising stars from YouTube, Facebook, Vine, Periscope, YouNow, SnapChat, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter and blogging than ever before.
“We are so proud of our outstanding speaker line-up and that this year’s agenda takes a deep dive into the personal, economic and technical hands-on development that will help creators not only be more creative, but also make more money and build better content platforms,” said Piera Jolly, Co-CEO of DiMe Media.
In the spirit of unity that marks this year’s event, Hispanicize and DiMe Media are collaborating with other creator networks to incorporate them and the talents they represent in the agenda. Maker Studios, Univision Creators Network, 2BTube and LatinWe are all bringing high profile creators to present at the DiMe Summit and/or Hispanicize.
“Seven Hispanicize events ago we founded the business side of Latino social media industry and today this commitment to inclusiveness is what makes Hispanicize the destination for hundreds of brands and agencies to discover and engage today’s Latina and multicultural creators,” said Manny Ruiz, founder and creative director of the Hispanicize event.
