Awards gala shows Hispanic business is alive and well in RI - Projo 7 to 7 News Blog | Rhode Island news | The Providence Journal: "PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- In what some see as a further sign that entrepreneurship in the Hispanic community is alive and well, the state's Hispanic-American Chamber of Commerce held its 11th annual awards gala at the Rhode Island Convention Center Tuesday, drawing nearly 300 participants.

The chamber's chairwoman, Juana Horton, who started her interpretive services company while sitting one day at her dining room table only to see it become the largest interpreting company in the state, noted the membership in the chamber has grown four-fold since it began with about 25 members a decade ago and it looks as though membership will continue to grow."
