PRSA Foundation Presents: Advancing Hispanic Representation in PR and Communications
Join the Conversation That Can Shape the Future of Our Industry
PRSA Foundation Presents: Advancing Hispanic Representation in PR and Communications
Wednesday, October 8, 2025 • 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. (PST)
Hispanics make up nearly 20% of the U.S. population and drive one of the most powerful consumer markets in the world, yet they remain significantly underrepresented in public relations and communications. If U.S. Latinos were a country, they’d rank among the top 5 economies in the world ($4.1 Trillion). Hispanic outreach is no longer a nice add-on; it’s a business imperative. These numbers make one thing clear: Representation matters.
This inspiring virtual summit brings together industry titans to discuss:
• Proven strategies to attract and retain more Hispanic professionals.
• The power of mentorship and allyship in advancing careers.
• How Hispanic voices strengthen the future of communications.
Panelists:
Isabel Abislaiman, senior vice president and senior partner, FleishmanHillard
Michael Estevez, vice president, communications, Bristol Myers Squibb
Rosemary Mercedes, senior vice president, global communications, BBC Studios
Moderator: Stephen Chavez, president and CEO, ChavezPR
*All proceeds from registrations and sponsorships will go directly to the PRSA Foundation.
