Esteemed figures from the music world are set to receive recognition for their outstanding contributions. The Latin Alternative Music Conference (LAMC) is preparing to honor a distinguished group of twenty women through its 2025 Wonder Women of Latin Music program. Collaborating with Amazon Music, this initiative highlights professionals across various sectors, such as journalism, publicity, and executive roles, all united by their impact on the industry.
This year's event marks the sixth iteration of the LAMC Wonder Women of Latin Music list, which has already celebrated over a hundred exceptional individuals. Among this year’s honorees is Jessica Roiz, an assistant editor at Billboard specializing in Latin music. In addition to recognizing these trailblazers with a special award, the LAMC will also host a panel discussion dedicated to the achievements of women in Latin music, taking place in New York City from July 8-12. Rocío Guerrero, global head of music for Amazon Music in Latin and Iberia, expressed her excitement about continuing to honor and uplift these influential figures who propel Latin music forward.
Inspiration drives progress, and celebrating pioneers like those featured in this program fosters an environment where innovation thrives. Alongside Jessica Roiz, past recipients include prominent names such as Leila Cobo, chief content officer for Latin/Español at Billboard, and Griselda Flores, senior editor for Latin music at the same publication. The complete roster of honorees reflects a diverse array of talents shaping the future of Latin music, underscoring the importance of acknowledging those who make meaningful differences within the field.
