In this episode of The Chingona Chair, hosts Lilia Arroyo Flores, Diana Leza Sheehan, and Alex Garza sit down with tech leader and investor David Olivencia, CEO and General Partner of Angeles Investors and Ventures. Together, they unpack one of the most urgent and overlooked conversations in tech: the role of Latinos in shaping the future of AI.

From early adoption to entrepreneurial innovation, Latinos are not just using AI—we’re driving it. So why are we still being left out of the funding conversation?

Tune in as we explore:

• How Latino consumers and entrepreneurs are embracing AI in surprising and powerful ways
• The systemic blind spots keeping Latino-led ventures underfunded
• What investors are missing—and what Latino founders must do to break through
• The critical role of representation in AI development, corporate boards, and beyond

This episode is a rallying cry for visibility, investment, and cultural relevance in the age of AI. If you're building, investing, or just curious about the future of tech and equity—this one’s for you.

In part 3 of our Latino Freeze series, we unpack the tough stuff—who gets left out of boycotts, how fatigue threatens momentum, and what brands need to do if they’re serious about earning Latino trust. No fluff. No filters. Just strategy, stakes, and straight talk.

In this episode, we unpack the ripple effects on employees, minority-owned brands, and retailers caught in the crosshairs—because economic resistance is powerful, but it’s not always clean. We also explore ways to minimize the impact on small businesses while maximizing the pressure on the brands targeted through economic activism.

Latinos aren’t staying silent—they’re redirecting their dollars. In this episode, we unpack the Latino Freeze movement, the values driving economic activism, and the brands feeling the pressure. From backlash against Target to rising trust in brands like Costco and H-E-B, we explore who’s earning Latino loyalty—and who’s losing it.
