Black tie event

"Ripples of Impact: Connecting Latina Entrepreneurs."

Immerse yourself in an empowering evening where every connection initiates a ripple effect of influence. Commemorate the interwoven journey of Latina entrepreneurs in the Inland Empire, crafting success surges reverberating across the community. Delve into the potential of collaboration, mentorship, and the narratives of shared triumph, all of which contribute to a unified and profound impact.

Join us in raising our ‘LEILA-Tini’ to toast and celebrate the remarkable accomplishments of local Latina Entrepreneurs & Latina Executives. This year's event transcends being merely an evening of recognition – it serves as a platform to spotlight the significant contributions made by Latina business owners in the Inland Empire, casting a luminous focus on their impact.

The Latinas nominated are entrepreneurs that have demonstrated leadership and service to their community. We are thrilled to recognize these brilliant women in three categories: LATINA EXECUTIVE OF THE YEAR AWARD, LATINA OWNED EMERGING BUSINESS OF THE YEAR AWARD, and LATINA OWNED BUSINESS.

Do you know a ‘Triunfadora’ that deserves to be honored at our upcoming LEILA Awards? We are looking to honor Latina-Owned businesses and Latina executives that have demonstrated an innovative business approach, resilience & success and have an impact on the local business community in the Inland Empire.
