2022-2023 Aspen Latinos Impact Report – The Aspen Institute

Since 2015, our mission has been rooted in the belief that the success of the U.S. Latino community is essential to America’s future prosperity and global competitiveness. Over the past two years, this mission has come to life through innovative initiatives, impactful convenings, and groundbreaking partnerships that have reached across industries, sectors, and geographies.
In this report, you’ll find stories of resilience, data-driven solutions, and community-driven impact. From launching the Latino Digital Success Initiative to addressing systemic barriers facing Latino businesses through the Aspen City Action Lab, our work has been guided by one clear vision: empowering Latinos to lead and thrive in every facet of the U.S. economy.
Latinos now account for nearly 20% of the U.S. population, and an astounding $3.7 trillion* to the nation’s GDP—equivalent to the fifth-largest economy in the world. Yet, achieving economic parity for Latinos could unlock an additional $2.3 trillion, transforming families, businesses, and entire communities. To realize this vision, our focus has remained steadfast: advancing leadership, entrepreneurship, and digital equity while fostering inclusive ecosystems that drive sustainable growth.
Collectively, we are building a future that reflects the diversity, strength, and boundless potential of our nation.
