Date 2010/8/28 6:20:00 | Topic: SHPE Cincinnati

Business, civic and hospitality leaders came together to celebrate the launch of the new Cincinnati chapter of the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE).

The local chapter celebrated its founding with a reception at the Procter & Gamble headquarters from 5-7 p.m. Friday, August 27.

"The formation of the SHPE Chapter in Cincinnati provides an opportunity for us to become the obvious source for quality Hispanic professionals in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math,” said Jorge Seda, president of the new chapter. “We will fulfill our mission by promoting educational and networking opportunities, professional and personal growth while enhancing the pride and reputation of the Hispanic community. These goals culminate with the SHPE National Convention to be held in our city in October."

The Cincinnati chapter was founded in part to help support and prepare for the SHPE National Conference, the largest technical conference for Hispanics in the nation, which will bring an estimated 5,000 SHPE members to Cincinnati USA in October 27-31, 2010.

Event speakers included:

Barry Cordero, SHPE Regional Vice President
Milton Dohoney, City Manager, City of Cincinnati
