The Rhode Island Hispanic Chamber of Commerce is celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2026, marking a decade of empowering Latino entrepreneurs and driving economic growth across the state. Since 2016, the organization has made a significant impact—supporting over 1,150 members, funding more than $250,000 in microloans, assisting 150+ startups, and engaging thousands through events, consulting, and outreach.

To build on this momentum, the Chamber is committing to expanding its programs in 2026, offering year-round training and resources focused on business growth, financial literacy, marketing, credit building, and AI. These initiatives aim to help entrepreneurs scale sustainably and access new opportunities.

The Chamber is inviting partners and sponsors to play a key role in this next phase, emphasizing that sponsorship is not just visibility—but a meaningful investment in education, stability, and the continued growth of Rhode Island’s Latino business community.
