Latino Community Events in Baltimore
Real rooms. Real people. Latino entrepreneurs, creatives, and business owners finding each other in Baltimore.
Colado Latino Network hosts in-person events built for the Latino community. No pitch decks. No gatekeeping. Just genuine connection between people who are building something in this city.
What We Do
More Than a Networking Event
Connect
Real introductions between Latino entrepreneurs, business owners, and professionals building in Baltimore. No awkward small talk scripts. Just real people finding each other.
Build
Every room we fill is an investment in the community. We bring together people with skills, capital, ideas, and ambition so they can grow something together. Not alone.
Celebrate
We show up in spaces that belong to us. Hosted by Latino-owned businesses, for our gente. That's not an accident. Es de nosotros.

Where We've Been
Past Events
Colado @ The Empanada Lady
The Empanada Lady · Downtown Baltimore, MD
The energy in that room didn't need a microphone. People walked in not knowing anyone and left with follow-up plans in their phone. Real introductions. Real laughter. Real gente, in a space that belongs to la comunidad.
Hosted at The Empanada Lady, right in the middle of downtown Baltimore. The food was right. The drinks were right. And by the end of the night, everybody had connected with somebody. That's what we're here for.
Coladito @ Cafe Los Suenos
Cafe Los Suenos · Remington, Baltimore, MD
Smaller room. Same energy. A handful of Latino entrepreneurs gathered at Cafe Los Suenos in Remington, sat down, and actually talked. No agenda. No presentations. Just gente sharing what they know with people who needed to hear it.
Then everybody walked over to R House, ate together, and kept the conversation going. That's what Coladito is supposed to feel like. Intimate. Honest. Ours.
The First Colado Gathering
Bodega and Vino · Locust Point, Baltimore, MD
The one that started it all. Baltimore's Latino entrepreneurs, creatives, and business owners showed up, and then some. We opened with 50 tickets. Demand pushed us to 60. Every single one sold.
Two hours of real conversation between people who had been looking for a room like this. Hosted in a Latino-owned space, for our community, by our community. That's what Colado is supposed to feel like.
Where We Show Up
Hosted at Latino-Owned Businesses. On Purpose.
Every Colado Latino Network event is hosted at a Latino-owned business in Baltimore. That's not a detail. That's the point. We bring people into spaces that belong to our community.
Bodega and Vino
Baltimore, MD · Locust Point
Thursday, March 19. One Colado Latino Network gathering. Numbers from Angela at Bodega & Vino.
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.
Seen at Colado
Y'all weren't strangers for long.
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.
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.
We find your match
We review every submission and pair people whose skills, industries, or goals create a real opportunity for both sides.
Tu te conectas.
Coffee, a call, whatever works. One focused conversation between two people who are serious about growing 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.

Bodega and Vino
Baltimore, MD · Locust Point
A neighborhood wine bar, specialty bodega, and community gathering space in Locust Point. Coffee in the morning, tapas and wine at night. Always a seat for la comunidad.
They opened their space so nuestra gente could find each other. That's what this is supposed to feel like.
The Empanada Lady
Baltimore, MD · Downtown
Handmade empanadas and Latin flavors right in the middle of downtown Baltimore. The kind of spot you find once and immediately want to tell everyone about.
They opened their kitchen so nuestra gente could gather in May. That's what a real host does.
