It was a very good experience to be able to participate in the Let's Talk About Business event and learn many things that we ourselves did not know. Very impressed with the professionalism and preparation of all the panelists, especially Mónica Hernández. We hope to continue participating much more actively in the events. Thank you for the opportunity you gave us.

Michael Boatman, testimony

The relationship with your local commerce community is very important to start and grow a local business network. When I started doing business in Jacksonville in 2017, I came across the FCHCC. Since the new directions of the FCHCC, I have heard and seen the different business environment in the community. I have relationships with other business owners that have shared the experience.

I have been waiting for the first live event this year. My colleague and I had a blast meeting and mingling with other Hispanic professionals at the FCHCC Professional Networking (IN-PERSON) Event hosted at Estrella Cocina this week. No better way to make connections and advance our businesses and at the same time promoting our culture and values as Hispanics. Gracias por esa energia organizando el evento.

Thanks for organizing the Economic Relief For Small Business Free Webinar. It was a great initiative that was of great help for us, small business owners that need orientation in these times of uncertainty. The background and knowledge of the panelist and coordination gave us credible information to act on and try to save our companies and the livelihood of our families.
