Remy Arteaga has become an important voice among the Latino entrepreneurship ecosystem. After serving as Director of the Deming Center for Entrepeneurship in Colorado, he has been called to help accelerate the startup scene in Silicon Valley, California, and now in Tucson, Arizona, as reported in Forbes.

Remy’s brand is that of a fire-starter in the mainstream startup world -- he’s launched and exited a few companies on his own -- and who just so happens to be Latino. Among Remy’s many gifts is a remarkable ability to see and bridge cultural divides, and find new ways to close gaps. "In other words, he has his eyes on the prize, Latino-wise, and for other underrepresented groups in the burgeoning Arizona startup world" writes Giovanni Rodriguez in Forbes.
