mark-schenkelAssociate Professor of Entrepreneurship in the Jack C. Massey College of Business Dr. Mark Schenkel was recently included as an expert in WalletHub’s article, “2016’s Best Cities for Hispanic Entrepreneurs.” The article, recently published here, explains that the Hispanic and Latino communities are “expected to make up a third of the entire U.S. population by 2050,” while creating businesses 15 times faster than the national rate. Beyond that, the demographic’s four million businesses have brought in $144 billion in revenu, raising the nation’s 2015 total to $661 billion.

 

The article goes on to rate the best 150 cities in the U.S. for Hispanic entrepreneurs and concludes with Schenkel’s expert interview that discusses the largest challenge Hispanic entrepreneurs face, incentives offered and best practices.
