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.
