What does it look like when an organization truly has its people’s backs?

As part of Hispanic Executive’s Legal Luminaries 2026, we’re highlighting Elena Ortiz, senior counsel at Mastercard, whose career offers one answer.

Ortiz was promoted while on maternity leave, an experience that reinforced her belief that career ambition and life outside of work don’t have to compete. Today, she brings that same pragmatic perspective to her work across cybersecurity, technology, and global payments.

As part of Hispanic Executive’s Legal Luminaries series, we’re highlighting Edda Santiago, SVP and deputy general counsel at Covenant House International.

Her career has taken her from advising high-net-worth clients in private practice to defending tenants in Harlem and, eventually, using her legal expertise to support Covenant House’s mission.

Santiago’s journey shows that changing direction doesn’t mean leaving everything you’ve built behind. Sometimes it means finding a place where that experience can create an entirely different kind of impact.

The old retirement formula is changing.

As retirement stretches longer and careers become less linear, planning for the future increasingly means building flexibility... not simply hitting a predetermined number.

We look at what that shift means for spending, investing, work, and the traditional 4% ruleand why optionality may be one of the most important parts of a modern retirement strategy.

Presented in partnership with AVANCE Global.

Today, August 19, we celebrate World Photography Day by turning the lens toward Latino photographers whose work is expanding the possibilities of the medium.

Through stories of Indigenous identity, environmental connection, Afro-Caribbean spirituality, culture, and memory, these artists remind us that photography can do much more than document a moment, it can shape how we see the world.

Meet the photographers and explore their work: https://hispanicexecutive.com/latin-american-photography-beyond-the-lens/

Sports teams have long been symbols of prestige. Increasingly, they’re something else: sophisticated investment platforms.

Private equity firms, family offices, institutional investors, and other investment groups are entering the game as franchises generate value far beyond ticket sales, from media and real estate to data, intellectual property, and global brand opportunities.

In our latest Hispanic Executive x AVANCE Global story, we look at who is buying sports teams, why valuations continue to climb, and what the new economics of ownership reveal about the future of the business of sports.

The conversation continues this September at AVANCE Global, where entrepreneurs, investors, and executives will come together to explore the forces shaping the next generation of business and growth.

Following the 7.4-magnitude earthquake that struck western Colombia on August 10, communities across the country are navigating loss, displacement, and the beginning of a long recovery.

As authorities continue rescue and damage-assessment efforts, organizations are mobilizing resources, providing meals, and supporting communities on the ground.

For those looking for ways to help, here are three organizations currently supporting relief and recovery efforts in Colombia:

Give To Colombia — https://givetocolombia.org/
World Central Kitchen — https://wck.org/
GlobalGiving — https://www.globalgiving.org/

Our thoughts are with everyone affected and with those working to support communities through the days and months ahead. 🇨🇴

Leadership isn’t measured by the size of the budget you manage, it’s measured by the people you help succeed.

As part of Hispanic Executive’s Food & Hospitality Series: Manny Ramirez, Director of Strategic Sourcing at Smithfield Foods, reflects on his journey from “procurement junkie” to a leader whose greatest priority is helping his team do their best work.

Growing up as the son of Colombian immigrants taught him adaptability and resilience. Today, those same lessons guide how he mentors others, builds trust, and creates an environment where people can thrive.

“She’s not actually my aunt…but she’s my aunt.”

Every Latino family has someone who requires this exact explanation.

Anthropologists call it fictive kinship: the bonds that turn friends, neighbors, godparents, and lifelong family friends into something more.

In the latest Hisplaining, Diego Rubalcava Tonasso looks at why, in Latino communities, family isn’t always defined by DNA. Sometimes, the people who keep showing up simply become part of it.
