National Hispanic Business Group

What National Hispanic Business Group does

The National Hispanic Business Group (NHBG) is an independent non-profit business membership organization founded in 1985 in New York City by a group of prominent Hispanic entrepreneurs. Its stated mission is to expand, promote, and create business opportunities for Hispanic entrepreneurs, business owners, and professionals at the vice-president level and above by fostering dialogue and economic exchange with public and private sector decision-makers. The organization operates a tiered membership structure: Hispanic Business Members ($1,800/year), Corporate Members in Silver ($10K), Gold ($20K), and Platinum ($25K) tiers, and multiple Associate categories ranging from $500 to $1,500, with select non-fee categories (public sector, non-entrepreneur) available by invitation.

NHBG delivers value through a calendar of recurring in-person programming rather than technology products. Its offerings include the Annual Gala Awards & Scholarship Presentation (the 39th edition scheduled for July 22, 2026, at Gotham Hall), an Annual Golf Outing held each September, Procurement Networking Seminars, corporate luncheons, private member receptions, and committee participation. The Education Fund, established in 1993, has distributed over $250,000 in scholarships to Hispanic college students pursuing business degrees in the Tri-State Region.

The business model is a recurring subscription-and-events hybrid: annual membership dues form the recurring revenue base, supplemented by corporate sponsorships, gala ticket sales, and golf outing proceeds that also fund the Education Fund. NHBG is governed by a Board of Directors composed of member business owners and executives; named board members represent companies in commercial flooring (Architectural Flooring Resource), general contracting (Integrity General Contracting, Padilla Construction Services), compliance and energy services (The Crescent Companies), contracting (KCM Contracting), and maintenance services (LV Maintenance). The organization maintains its headquarters at 115 Broadway, 5th Floor, New York, NY, with no subsidiaries, parent company, or external investors identified.

Directly comparable in facilitating corporate-vendor minority procurement matchmaking, but operates across all minority groups nationally.
• Women's Business Enterprise National Council: National non-profit certifying women-owned businesses and connecting them with corporate buyers. Similar model of certifying diverse businesses and facilitating procurement matchmaking, though focused on women-owned rather than Hispanic-owned businesses.

Emerging players

Comparable in mission to advance Hispanic business and professional representation, similar membership/networking model targeting corporate and Hispanic executive engagement.

Regional players
