The Honorable Mark L. Madrid, former U.S. Small Business Administration Associate Administrator and Founder & CEO of Breakthrough Mavens, LLC, has announced a strategic partnership with Latinhub TV, a new AI media company. The collaboration positions Madrid as Latinhub's Chief Sports & Small Business Ambassador and Advisory Board Member, integrating his entrepreneurship platform, relationship capital, and AI and media portfolio into a global expansion effort.
At an Austin event, Madrid launched two new books, 'The AI Transformation' and 'DISCIPLINE-Don't Get Hung Up on the Word!', and premiered 'Markitos For the People,' an AI-powered digital twin microdrama produced by Steve Mudd, CEO of Talentless AI. The series, which debuted on Latinhub TV, translates Madrid's "white-collar experience and blue-collar DNA" into an AI-enabled storytelling format designed for media expansion and brand activation.
"Visibility is valuable. Enterprise is transformational," Madrid said. "This partnership is about converting trusted relationships, powerful stories and emerging technology into opportunity at scale."
Eduardo Velasco, CEO of Latinhub TV, emphasized the synergy: "Markitos is a sample of the microdrama production we can do with artificial intelligence. The alliance connects Madrid's ecosystem—Breakthrough Mavens, Self-Fueling Excellence™, and Small Business is BIG Business—with Latinhub TV's media infrastructure. This collaboration transforms ideas into content, content into activation, and activation into enterprise."
The partnership matters because it exemplifies how AI and media can be harnessed to scale entrepreneurship and minority business outreach. Latinhub TV, operated by Agentic TV, reaches the Hispanic audience across Roku & OTT, in-store DOOH, web, mobile, and social platforms, including its NYC-branded point-of-sale network, Bodegas TV. This extensive reach provides a powerful channel for Madrid's message, potentially accelerating small business growth and digital adoption within Hispanic communities.
Madrid's three-city tour, which began in Austin and continues September 13 in Las Vegas before culminating in Washington, D.C., underscores his role as Economic Architect for America's Next 250. The initiative aims to keep entrepreneurs central to national competitiveness ahead of the 250th anniversary, focusing on human capability, technological adoption, economic prosperity, and global reach. As Madrid works to elevate small business issues, the partnership with Latinhub TV could serve as a model for leveraging AI to drive economic empowerment and cross-cultural business development.
