We will be hosting the Business Conference Workshops from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., where attendees will receive vital information from local business experts. A Social and Expo will follow from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. which will provide opportunities for business networking and vendor display information as well as a time to celebrate the day’s successes. The full-day event will take place at same location.

Hundreds of people have attended

our annual Hispanic Business

Conference and Expo event in the past. Our participating businesses have been able to establish new customers while building loyalty among current clients. At this time, we are looking for potential sponsors that will take the lead in marketing and promoting their product and services to its full potential.

This year, we continue to expand and provide key information as part of the six break-out sessions, focusing on important business issues, from successfully marketing your business through social media; learning how to professionally brand your business and developing smart banking strategies. In between attending the workshop sessions led by some of the most top experts in the field, participants can also explore our Expo section where approximately 40 local businesses will

be on hand to meet with consumers and share valuable information.

The Future of Kern County is the Hispanic Community. Already Latinos are leading the majority in California, and recent Census data show that Latinos are growing tremendously in Kern County each year. The KCHCC is the fastest growing civic organization in Kern County, representing over 410,000 Hispanics in the area. We encourage you take advantage of this excellent sponsorship opportunity and at the same time support the KCHCC. There are various sponsorship levels: Presenting, Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze; each offers a wide variety of marketing opportunities for your business.

We are excited to provide you this opportunity to gain exposure for your company and help you access the strong local Hispanic business and consumer base. Please consider being a sponsor for 21st annual Hispanic Business Conference and Expo. You may call the chamber office for more details or if you have any questions (661) 633-5495.

Thank you for your consideration and support.
