Who We Are
Latinx MBA is a national nonprofit community dedicated to empowering Latinx MBAs and business professionals. We create pathways for growth, representation, and impact across industries and communities. Together, we are shaping the next generation of Latinx leaders
Through our chapters, we make our greatest impact in communities.
Our chapters are the foundation of our community, connecting members locally while driving impact nationwide. With a presence in New York, California, Texas, Florida, Massachusetts, Washington, and Illinois.
Our chapters bring together students and alumni to build meaningful connections and create opportunities at the local level. Alumni make up nearly 80% of our membership, and our national alumni engagement efforts are led by Francheska Polanco and Maria Sucher, who guide local leaders across nine cities to strengthen and grow our alumni community.
Our Story
Founded in April 2020 amid the COVID-19 lockdowns, the organization emerged from an urgent need to unite Latinx MBAs across the country. Each year, nearly 300 Latinx MBAs graduate from top MBA programs without meaningful connection—an untapped pool of talent and potential. By the end of 2020, the Latinx MBA Association was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and in February 2021, it launched publicly, quickly becoming one of the largest networks of Latinx MBAs nationwide.
Our Vision
Develop, empower, & advance Latinx business leaders in order to create positive economic change for the United States.
Familia
We are a connected community rooted in support and shared success. We celebrate one another, lift as we climb, and commit to paying it forward for the next generation of Latinx leaders.
Growth Mindset
We believe growth begins with ownership. We challenge ourselves—and each other—to learn, evolve, and rise into our fullest potential, knowing that individual progress strengthens the collective.
Inclusivity
The U.S. Latinx community is not a single story, but rather many. We actively welcome diverse cultures, identities, and perspectives, creating space where everyone belongs and feels seen.
Authenticity
We empower our community to lead with confidence by honoring real Latinx experiences. By embracing our journeys and owning our narratives, we create environments where people can thrive as their true selves.
