Our event will include a prominent speaker providing us with insights into Business in the Latin American community. In addition, an internal HLBSA award will be given to a member who has exemplified the HLBSA’s mission and made significant contributions to the club, school, and community. Finally, the event will culminate with a networking session in which conference sponsors will be invited to interact with HLBSA members in a social setting. For more information, please click here.
