This podcast dives into how government officials (“govies”), venture capitalists (“plutes”), and industry trailblazers (“gangsters”), all have a unique yet critical role to play in closing the wealth gap in the Latino community. Join entrepreneur and investor Gary Acosta, Co-Founder & CEO of NAHREP, the country's leading Hispanic business organization, and of L'ATTITUDE, the preeminent platform for Latino economic empowerment with powerhouse guests as they discuss what it takes to close the wealth gap within the Latino community.
