I've been tracking Latino-founded startups through Entrapeer's database and seeing strong momentum in smart home and health tech categories heading into 2026. Our AI agents identified a 40% uptick in Latino-founded companies pivoting toward bilingual IoT solutions over the past 18 months. **Eren Hukumdar, Co-Founder & CEO, Entrapeer, San Francisco.** We're launching improved market intelligence tools at CES 2026 focused on demographic-specific tech adoption patterns. Two concrete insights: Hispanic households show 35% higher adoption rates for multi-generational smart home solutions compared to single-user systems, and voice-first health monitoring devices are seeing massive traction because they bypass language barriers that traditional app interfaces create. From our corporate clients in automotive and telecom, we're seeing enterprises specifically scout for Latino founders who understand cultural nuances in family-oriented tech products. The "problem-first" approach I advocate becomes crucial here--successful Latino founders aren't just translating existing products, they're solving entirely different use cases around extended family connectivity and cross-border communication. Our platform connects these founders with Fortune 500 partners, and I'm seeing demo windows opening up in Q4 2025 as companies prep their CES presence. Happy to arrange briefings with specific founders in our network who match your categories.
Hi I'm not Latina I'm Lebanese - not sure if I still fit into your needs for this article. But my information is below. Moss Pure is perfect for this. We work with corporate offices and luxury homes to transform spaces and improve your air quality with our living moss air filters and stress relief devices. Moss Pure is a brand new invention and product category within the biophilic design space. Moss Pure was created at a startup competition at MIT (MIT Lebanon Challenge) in June 2020 where it won First Place Startup. During the competition, I realized that no other company was using 100% living moss. Most moss wall and decor companies use preserved moss or dried moss, which are no longer living. Preserved moss looks fake and falls apart easily, fades, is low quality, and constantly needs replacing. Because of these disadvantages, Moss Pure was created. Moss Pure is the world's only company to use 100% live moss as an air filter, stress relief device, and aesthetically pleasing decor piece for your home and office. No watering, sunlight, or maintenance is needed. Yes that's right no watering or irrigation needed. Our live moss survives within our patent pending invention. It's important to note that we are not just adding live moss to a frame or decor piece. If you were to just add live moss to a decor piece, it wouldn't live for more than a few days and it wouldn't be an air filter. It's our patent pending and award winning science that allows us to create a live moss air filter that doesn't need watering. Moss Pure has been tested for air quality by a certified U.S. laboratory. Each square foot of our live moss air filters capture 30% of carbon dioxide and 1.5 million particles of toxic pollutants, including dust and allergens, in just 2 minutes. We are the only plant based product with certified air quality results. Custom live moss wall: if you're looking to elevate your space to another level, you can opt for our custom moss walls. You can build a medium sized custom moss wall here (https://www.mosspure.com/product/custom-moss-wall-art/). if you're looking for even more design such as a logo or bigger piece, you can contact us and check out https://www.mosspure.com/live-moss-walls/. I will work with you one-on-one as your personal engineer and designer. Google drive link of products is here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1C2ETGBae5KPboGDRV4Nc6q93AcPNLyu3?usp=share_link.

As someone who's spent three decades helping people across communities--including many Hispanic property owners--turn real estate notes into flexibility and cash flow, I see a growing need for easily accessible financial tools tailored to minority homeowners. While American Funding Group won't be launching at CES, I encourage innovators to look at how tech can bridge cultural gaps in property financing--because for countless Hispanic families, their home is not just a roof, it's a path to generational wealth. Any new platform that simplifies owner financing or note sales, especially if it includes Spanish-language support and transparent education, will stand out in 2026 and beyond.
