Jaime Viteri, President of Digital Latinos and founder of the Chicago Latino Network, said it best:
“You can’t just call the network when you need the network.”
Jaime’s right. A real network isn’t built overnight or only when things get tough. It’s built over time, with intention, presence, and love. You show up for your people, even when there’s nothing to ask for. You give, support, connect, and stay rooted because that’s what comunidad looks like.
In this cafecito, we sat down with Jaime to reflect on the 25-year journey behind one of the most recognized platforms for Latine professionals in Chicago: the Chicago Latino Network.
What began as one man’s vision to bring Latines together across professions has become a legacy. Today, CLN connects over 100,000 professionals and entrepreneurs. Jaime shares what it takes to build comunidad, elevate cultura, and shape generations of connection with humility, vision, and corazón.
