Facebook Eyes Forum For New Mexico Hispanic Small Business Success

Facebook

Facebook is holding a workshop for New Mexico Hispanic small businesses days after announcing it is building a new data center in the state.

The social media giant and the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce are hosting the Albuquerque seminar Friday to show businesses how to have a better presence on Facebook.

A Facebook small business expert will give a presentation on the latest practices and strategies for success.

The Menlo Park, California-based Facebook announced earlier this month it had selected New Mexico for a new data center over Utah.

The largely Hispanic village of Los Lunas, New Mexico, agreed to give up all property taxes for 30 years in exchange for annual payments starting at $50,000 and topping out at under $500,000.
