How We Gather

Two Ways to Connect

Colado

Quarterly

The main event. 50 to 60 people. A Latino-owned venue. Two hours of real introductions between entrepreneurs, creatives, and business owners who are serious about building in Baltimore. Hosted quarterly.

Coladito

Ongoing

Smaller. More intentional. Topic-driven. Coladito gathers a tighter group around a specific theme or conversation: financials, digital presence, business formation, community. These run between the main events and go deeper.

Colado Connects

La Conexión Sigue.

The event ends, but the network keeps building. Whether you met someone at Colado and want to go deeper, or you've never been in the same room, Colado Connects pairs two Latino professionals for one intentional introduction. Meet someone new or keep a connection going. Either way, the community grows.

01

Tell us about yourself

Fill out a short form: who you are, what you're building, and what kind of connection would actually move the needle for you.

02

We find your match

We review every submission and pair people whose skills, industries, or goals create a real opportunity for both sides.

03

Tu te conectas.

Coffee, a call, whatever works. One focused conversation between two people who are serious about growing together.

About Colado Latino Network

Built by Us. For Us.

Colado Latino Network is a Baltimore-based community for Latino entrepreneurs, creatives, and business owners. We host in-person networking events at Latino-owned businesses across the city because the space for this kind of connection didn't exist here. So we built it.

Most Latino business networks are national organizations with applications, membership fees, and minimum revenue requirements to get in the door. We're not that. It doesn't matter if you've been running your business for ten years or still figuring out the name. If you're building something and you want to be in a room with people who get it, you belong here.

No applications. No pitch pressure. Just Baltimore's Latino business community, in the same room, building something real together.

Support the Network

Become a Sponsor

Our events bring Baltimore's Latino business community into the same room. That's a specific, motivated audience. Latino entrepreneurs, creatives, and professionals who are actively building.

Sponsorship puts your business in front of that community in a way that matters. Not an ad. A presence.

The quick answers on who Colado is for, what it costs, and how to show up.

What is Colado Latino Network?
Colado Latino Network is Baltimore's gathering space for Latino entrepreneurs, creatives, and business owners. We host in-person events where you can meet people who are building in this city, share resources, and find your people. No pitch decks, no gatekeeping, just real connection.
Who is Colado for?
Latino entrepreneurs, business owners, creatives, and professionals in the Baltimore area, whether you run an established business, help run someone else's, or are just thinking about starting your own. If you have ever walked into a networking event and felt like it was not built for you, this one is.
How much does it cost to attend a Colado event?
Our events are free to attend. You reserve a free spot on Eventbrite so we know who is coming. Some events offer an optional donation to help us keep hosting, but there is never a required ticket price.
Where are Colado events held?
At Latino-owned businesses across Baltimore. That is on purpose. We bring people into spaces that belong to our community, from wine bars to cafes to local restaurants.
Do I need to own a business to come?
No. Plenty of people in the room are still figuring out their idea, working a day job, or helping run somebody else's business. What matters is that you want to build real relationships with other Latino professionals in Baltimore.
How do I find out about the next event?
Check the events page, follow us on Instagram at @colado.network, or follow us on Eventbrite. That is where every new gathering gets announced first.
What areas of Baltimore does Colado serve?
Colado is rooted in Baltimore City and Baltimore County, with community across neighborhoods like Fells Point, Highlandtown, Canton, Federal Hill, Hampden, and more. If you are Latino and building in the greater Baltimore area, you are part of this.
How is Colado different from other networking groups?
Most networking is transactional: exchange cards, leave, forget each other. Colado is built around real relationships between Latino professionals who get the culture, the hustle, and the vision. It is hosted by Latino-owned businesses, for our community, and it is free to be part of.
