The Rio Grande Valley Hispanic Chamber of Commerce hosted its annual Latina Leadership Conference on Thursday, Sept. 4, 2025, at the Mission Event Center in Mission, Texas. This year’s theme, “Sí Se Puede,” highlighted Latina leadership, cultural pride, and professional development. The conference featured keynote speaker Janet Murguía, president and CEO of UnidosUS, along with workshops, panel discussions, and a marketplace of women- and minority-owned vendors. Guests also enjoyed the Traditional Attire Contest, a long-standing tradition celebrating Hispanic heritage. “This conference is a space where Latinas can come together to share knowledge and strengthen their influence,” said RGVHCC President & CEO Cynthia M. Sakulenzki.
