About
The 2022 Adelante Conference is a virtual event designed to bring together the Latinx community. Hosted by the Latinx Student Organization (LASO) at Harvard Business School.
With this year's theme of Authentically "YO"!, we aim to have vulnerable conversations and create community by connecting about the meaning of being authentically yourself in the spaces we occupy. We will touch on the Latinx identity and what that can mean across various industries and lived experiences.
Our programming includes keynotes and panels by Latinx leaders and employers. Open to students, alumni, professionals, and the community at large. We will be holding the conference in a hybrid mode.
