Breaking barriers
LTNtech Voices was started due to a lack of representation of Latin individuals at 1871. We’re taking the leap forward and creating a CRG where Latinos can be better represented, both inside and outside of our community.
We’re working towards breaking down barriers of racial and inequality issues, alongside language barriers so that members in our community can expand their ideas and have their voices heard.Â
- Celebrate the unique culture of our staff and members
- Host networking events & happy hours
- Showcase guest Latin speakers in workshops & panels for our community of Latin entrepreneurs & leaders
- Moderate discussions & host interactive biweekly meetings
Our mission
Founded by a community of 1871 employees and members to promote inclusion, equity, and allyship across all levels of 1871.
WMNtech Voices is dedicated to providing an environment that uplifts marginalized voices and promotes continuous self-improvement across the entire organization & tech community. A win-win for all!
