CHICAGO, Oct. 30, 2018 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Negocios Now founder Clemente Nicado received the “Latino Publisher of the Year” award during the National Association of Hispanic Publications (NAHP) convention, held October 24-26 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The judging panel, which included renowned editors and journalists and a Pulitzer prize-winner, considered Nicado’s three-decade-long journalistic career and his work as publisher of Negocios Now, an award-winning publication founded in 2007.
“This award is much more than an award, it’s a dream. I feel very fortunate to have received an award for my passion. My passion for good journalism, for making Negocios Now a publication that has a real impact in our community,” Nicado said.
The NAHP also gave Negocios Now two other honors: A Gold award for Outstanding Business Section and for Outstanding Video Promoting a Publication, solidifying Negocios Now’s reputation as the most highly decorated Latino business publication in the country over the last decade.
Negocios Now is a B2B Hispanic publication based in Chicago with digital national distribution. Through its Custom Division, its parent company Nicado Publishing is expanding Negocios Now to other markets, including Los Angeles, Houston, Miami, New York, and Philadelphia.
“The success of Negocios Now is not just due to my experience in the industry, but to the support that I have in the community and from a group of sponsors who believe in what we do. This award has been given to a small business that tries to help other small businesses with useful content that supports their growth and success. This rich interaction has made Negocios Now a unique and highly decorated publication,” Nicado said.
