HL Media Network will present its 2027 Upfront on Monday, November 23, 2026, introducing a new year of multimedia storytelling, editorial programming, national events, and opportunities for collaboration.

As the independent media company approaches its 30th anniversary, the presentation will highlight its evolution from a regional publication to a multimedia network documenting the people, businesses, communities, and experiences shaping the American consumer.

We Are The Storytellers!

For nearly three decades, Hispanic Lifestyle has celebrated entrepreneurship, leadership, culture, and community through original editorial features, interviews, photography, television, video, and live events.

Our 2027 Upfront marks another important chapter in that journey.

The presentation will offer a preview of our expanding multimedia programming, national Milestone Series, digital platforms, signature editorial properties, and initiatives designed to connect audiences with meaningful stories and experiences.

What’s Ahead in 2027

The presentation will introduce several priorities for the coming year, including:

  • Multimedia Storytelling: Original video, podcasts, interviews, and editorial programming across HL Media Network platforms.

  • National Events: The continued expansion of the HL | Milestone Series, recognizing business leadership, entrepreneurship, and achievement.

  • Editorial Programming: New installments of HL | Culture & Influence, HL | Opening Doors, Home Tu Casa, and other signature properties.

  • Digital Engagement: New approaches to connecting audiences with people, content, organizations, and experiences.

  • 30th Anniversary: A yearlong celebration of three decades of storytelling and the people who have helped shape our journey.

  • Strategic Collaboration: Opportunities for organizations, businesses, and funding partners to participate in meaningful multimedia initiatives.

From Discovery to Engagement

For HL Media Network, storytelling is about more than producing content. It is about discovering people and ideas, developing relationships, creating opportunities, and extending conversations beyond an individual interview, publication, or event.

From Discovery to Engagement. From Engagement to Scale.

This philosophy will help guide our programming, distribution, and audience-development strategy in 2027.

EDITOR NOTES 

The Next Chapter

For nearly three decades, we’ve had the privilege of meeting extraordinary people, documenting their journeys, and sharing stories that reflect the ambitions, accomplishments, and experiences of our communities.

Along the way, we’ve experienced our own successes, challenges, and moments of reinvention. Through it all, one thing has remained constant: our belief in the power of storytelling to connect people and create opportunities.

As we approach our 30th anniversary, I find myself looking forward as much as reflecting on where we’ve been.

Our 2027 Upfront represents more than an introduction to new programming and events. It’s an opportunity to share how HL Media Network is evolving, how we’re building upon the relationships we’ve established, and how we intend to expand the reach and impact of our work.

We’ve often said that the conversation doesn’t end when the event does. That philosophy is becoming an increasingly important part of our future.

From Discovery to Engagement. From Engagement to Scale.

We have much more to accomplish, many more people to meet, and countless stories yet to tell.

I invite you to join us on November 23 as we introduce the next chapter of HL Media Network.

I welcome your thoughts, ideas, and suggestions for future stories. Whether it’s a personal experience, an inspiring individual, or an important issue affecting our communities, I’d like to hear from you.
