Empowering
Latina Entrepeneurs
Creating
a life in the business world
Washington,
DC--April 19, 2006--In today’s cutthroat economy where more
than half of attempted business ventures fail, potential business
owners need as much help as possible. LATINA Style Magazine has
acknowledged this fact and has set a goal to help educate potential
Latina entrepreneurs through a series of conferences called the
LATINA Style Business Series. The future Latina entrepreneurs
need to master certain skills that will help them prosper in the
business environment. LATINA Style sees a need for a mentor and
as a result, provides a story of success with keynote speaker
Rodri J. Rodriguez who will be addressing the audience at the
San Diego Conference on April 21, 2006 at the Bahia Resort Hotel.
Rodri J. Rodriguez
is President & CEO of Rodri Entertainment Group, an international
entertainment production company founded in 1976. Through her
company, Rodriguez spreads the essence of Latin Culture through
events such as the Mariachi USA Festival and the Standing Ovation
Series. The Mariachi USA Festival performs at many venues throughout
the country frequently in front of sold out shows. The Festival
gained the public eye this year when it was televised nationally
on PBS. The Standing Ovation Series is a compilation of concerts
featuring well-known artists within the Latin community.
Rodriguez takes an
active role in embodying the company’s motto: “entertainment
from the heart.” She takes an active role with the Hollywood
Arts Council sponsoring programs such as Project Sonar. Project
Sonar serves elementary school children in the Hollywood area
after school. It helps kids discover the power of the arts through
a series of workshops. The mission of Project Sonar is to enforce
productive work outside the classroom and to stimulate the creative
minds of the youth.
Rodriguez immigrated
to the United States along with 14,000 other children from Cuba
in the early 1960s during the “Peter Pan” exodus.
From an early age, Rodriguez learned the qualities of independence
and self-reliance that she has used in her later life. Through
all of her experiences, Rodri J. Rodriguez has proved herself
an excellent businesswoman and successful entrepreneur.
LATINA Style Business
Series is a one-day sponsored conference that seeks to empower
Latina professionals and business owners. By bringing people together
with key corporations and agencies, there is a diffusion of knowledge
providing goods, services, and essential information that are
most needed by today’s entrepreneur.
