The event comes at a critical time when the American Latino population is driving U.S. overall growth, yet representation in front of and behind the camera remains a mere 4%. NVISION seeks to address this disparity by offering a platform that supports emerging talent and catalyzes industry change.
“Our goal is clear: Impact every area of the media industry by changing the narrative and perception of what could be achieved and created as a culture. Danny has built an incredible platform. We’re here to maximize its potential and give creators a prominent platform to display their art.” Stated Lex Borrero, CEO of NTERTAIN
Danny Hastings shared his thoughts, “This new joint venture cannot come at a greater time for the festival. It was important for me to find partners who understand building businesses and also understand our culture. Their financial and emotional commitment to our community is evident, making this a win-win for our beloved community.”
NVISION recognizes Latino consumers’ economic power, representing a $1 trillion market. By amplifying Latina and Latino talent and stories, the festival contributes to a more inclusive cultural landscape by harnessing our demographic’s creative and commercial potential.
