We are leaders in developing multi-platform, culturally relevant content and experiences that connect our audience to their Latino roots and celebrate their heritage. If brands want to make an authentic connection with our community, the message is loud and clear: As far as Latino culture and entertainment is concerned, it happens here at Spanish Broadcasting System.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The company&#8217;s <b>It Happens Here<\/b> virtual upfront will provide viewers a deeper understanding of the power, reach, distribution and content of Spanish Broadcasting System and it&#8217;s multimedia portfolio as well as upcoming &#8217;21-22 opportunities for brand integrations through innovative, scalable cross-platform solutions to reach the diverse Latino market.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As we recover and rebuild from the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, we also wanted to take this opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to the Latino community,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Albert Rodriguez<\/span>, COO of Spanish Broadcasting System. &#8220;Empowering, entertaining and uplifting the Latino community is at the core of everything we do and we want the world to know that we have the leadership, the team, content and the platform that effectively reaches and culturally engages over 25 million Latinos on a weekly basis.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are proud to be the only Hispanic-owned and operated multimedia company as certified by the National Minority Supplier Development Council, and to be serving the largest minority group in the nation, which represents 18% of the U.S. population,&#8221; touted <span class=\"xn-person\">Elisa Torres<\/span>, EVP of AIRE Radio Networks and SBS National Sales. &#8220;We&#8217;re the tastemakers and masterminds behind all of the content and programming that addresses Latino cultural nuances, because we are the audience.
