Our Story

​Latinx MBA was founded in April 2020 during a moment of global uncertainty, when connection felt more important than ever. What began as a response to isolation during COVID-19 quickly became something bigger, a vision to unite Latinx MBA students across programs who had long been navigating these spaces without a shared community.

​

Each year, nearly 300 Latinx students graduate from top MBA programs in the U.S., yet many never cross paths. Latinx MBA was created to change that, transforming missed connections into a powerful, lasting network rooted in support, access, and opportunity.

​

By the end of 2020, the organization was officially incorporated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and in February 2021, it launched publicly. Today, Latinx MBA stands as one of the largest and most impactful communities of Latinx MBAs, built on the belief that when we come together, we all rise.

​

Founders: Nancy Torres, Jessica Leon, Tiq Chapa, Andrew Mairena, Ivan Aragon, Ashley Carrick, and Liscare Castro
