San Antonio Golf Tournament Draws Business Leaders From Across Southwest, an Industrial Info News Alert
(firmenpresse) - SUGAR LAND, TX -- (Marketwired) -- 02/17/16 -- Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas) -- An estimated 100 business leaders will gather in San Antonio March 31 to play golf, talk business and raise funds for Hispanic business students at the National Society of Hispanic MBAs (NSHMBA) (Dallas, Texas) fifth annual Charity Open at the TPC San Antonio Canyons Course. All proceeds raised from the charity golf event go to the group's scholarship fund that supports Hispanic undergraduate and graduate business students.
"This will be a perfect venue for people at all levels of business to come together at a beautiful place, broaden their network and break out of their silos," remarked Marissa Oliva, co-chair of this year's tournament. "Each year registrations for this event have surpassed the prior year, and this year we plan to do it right and do it big!" Oliva is a contract associate manager at Accenture Federal Services and treasurer of the San Antonio chapter of NSHMBA.
Increasingly, companies are finding they need business-savvy Hispanics to win and service business in Spanish-speaking countries. Closer to home, those same fields are seeking a more diverse employee base as they pursue opportunities in U.S. markets with a high concentration of Spanish speakers. A day spent networking on the golf course can give businesses an extra edge while opening doors to Hispanic business leaders of the future.
"In our four previous golf tournaments, we have raised over $40,000 to support Hispanic business students," said Leonardo Girón, co-chair of the charity event and president emeritus of the San Antonio chapter of NSHMBA. "Our scholarship fund supports high-potential Hispanic business students at the collegiate and graduate level. We are counting on the business community -- Hispanic and non-Hispanic -- to make this year's event a huge success. You never know what business opportunities could be nurtured while you're on the course."
