43rd Annual GWHCC Gala! Launching the first ever GWHCC Hispanic Business Hall of Fame Minority-owned businesses, including Hispanic-owned businesses, are the cornerstone of our nation's economy and an engine of job creation. In an effort to begin telling this story, the GWHCC is thrilled to announce the launching of the first ever GWHCC Hispanic Business Hall of Fame which will recognize business leaders whose achievements continue to promote and advance the economic climate of our communities. During the evening, we will award the luminaries who have made significant contributions to the development and advancement of the Hispanic market in Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia. The Annual Gala’s awards program, dinner and dancing, not only serve as a platform for the Chamber to highlight the importance and celebrate the influence of Hispanic professionals, it also provides an opportunity to network with over 500 of the city's most influential leaders. This year, we are committed to making history and invite you to form a part of the GWHCC 43rd Annual Gala.
