About us

Academia Hispanos Emprendedores is a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating, supporting, and empowering Hispanic entrepreneurs in the United States. Our focus is practical: we teach students the real-life steps needed to create, formalize, and grow a business, with content in Spanish and applied to the U.S. regulatory and business context.

Mission

Our mission is to empower Hispanic entrepreneurs to grow, prosper, and create brighter futures.

Vision

To be a national benchmark for training Hispanic entrepreneurs, recognized for its social impact, the quality of its content, and the effective connection between education, mentors, and the ecosystem (partner institutions, companies, and organizations).

The problem we solve

Many Hispanic entrepreneurs face information barriers in Spanish, lack of familiarity with legal and tax processes, and a lack of practical support. Our Academy translates the complexity of the U.S. business system into clear steps, with real-life examples, templates, and straightforward guidance to minimize costly mistakes and accelerate growth.
