Arkapital & CLA Launch European Tour to Represent Latino Excellence
Arkapital Financial, a leading financial services firm for high-achieving professionals, has announced an exclusive European tour in collaboration with CASA LATAM (CLA), a global business association dedicated to promoting Latino excellence and heritage within the luxury sector.
This strategic initiative will bring together distinguished leaders and innovators across Spain, France, and Italy, underscoring a shared commitment to building global bridges for Latino entrepreneurship and cultural influence. Through a series of private luncheons, curated networking mixers, and exclusive dinners, the tour will foster high-level relationships that extend beyond borders, setting the stage for transformative collaborations across industries and regions.
A Vision for Global Latino Entrepreneurship
With the global economy demanding innovation, connectivity, and cross-cultural fluency, Arkapital Financial views this tour as a cornerstone initiative in aligning Latino entrepreneurship with global markets and leadership ecosystems.
“This tour is an intentional move to align Latino entrepreneurship with global capital, markets, and leadership networks,” said Sandra Salcido, CFO of Arkapital Financial. “By cultivating high-level relationships across continents, we are positioning Latino innovators in the luxury sector to access the strategic resources and partnerships that drive scalable growth and long-term value creation.”
For Arkapital Financial, the initiative is more than a series of events. It is a platform for impact. It reflects the firm’s commitment to advancing Latino leaders beyond national borders, enabling them to capture opportunities in established European economies while also strengthening transatlantic partnerships that drive sustained value creation.
Preserving Culture, Expanding Influence
As global markets become increasingly interconnected, CASA LATAM (CLA) plays an essential role in amplifying Latino excellence and cultural identity on an international stage. Founded in partnership with Latin American embassies and cultural institutions, CLA works to secure global visibility and market access for entrepreneurs, artists, and artisans who embody the richness of Latino heritage.
“In today’s interconnected economy, the most effective leaders are those with global exposure to diverse ideologies, economic systems, and leadership models,” said Annie Grijalva, Founder of CLA. “As Latinos increasingly build lives across the world, whether driven by political shifts, lifestyle preferences, or growth opportunities, it is imperative that our heritage is preserved, our culture honored, our capital expanded, and our influence exposed globally.”
By weaving together cultural preservation and economic opportunity, CLA ensures that Latino leaders and innovators are not only represented but also recognized as drivers of growth and excellence within the global luxury sector.
Extending the Conversation Beyond Borders
The European tour represents more than in-person gatherings. It is the foundation of an enduring dialogue on Latino entrepreneurship and global influence. Both Arkapital Financial and CLA will actively share insights, highlights, and key learnings from the journey across their digital platforms, amplifying the reach of the initiative and ensuring it resonates with a wider international audience.
Understanding that the most meaningful collaborations often emerge organically in dynamic, cross-cultural settings, both organizations are committed to fostering ongoing engagement, long-term partnerships, and strategic synergies that endure well beyond the tour itself.
Building Toward 2026: A Global Summit
The European tour is designed not only to cultivate immediate opportunities but also to serve as the cornerstone of a larger vision. These efforts will culminate in a 2026 Awards Night and Global Summit, a landmark convening that will unite U.S. Hispanic leaders with Latino communities across Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
This forward-looking gathering will celebrate Latino achievement, showcase global innovation, and strengthen international networks that drive both economic prosperity and cultural advancement.
