LatISM, a group for social media professionals of Hispanic and Latino origin, hosted a conference in Washington, DC on December 11-12, 2009 as part of its LatiSM National Heritage Tour. The DC conference featured speakers on a variety of subjects, including Web 2.0, Gov 2.0, brand building, mobile technology, social media 101, and social good.

For participants unable to attend in person, the conference included a live Tweet Party which allowed users to connect to the event virtually. LatISM has also held conferences in New York, NY and Orlando, FL. LatiSM’s YouTube video is below:
