IT Solutions with the Hispano Chamber
The Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce is proud to serve as the first business sector partner of Project ECHO, beginning with a focus on IT Solutions. Just as Project ECHO revolutionized healthcare by connecting providers to real=time expertise, the Chamber is applying that same "all teach, all learn" model to help businesses strengthen their technology infrastructure and digital readiness with Project ECHO.
Through this initiative, Chamber members and local businesses gain access to IT experts and peer-to-peer learning that address practical challenges, ranging from cybersecurity and data management to digital tools that improve operations. The goal is to ensure that organizations, no matter their size, have the resources and knowledge to thrive in an increasingly digital economy.
Bringing the “all teach, all learn” model from healthcare to New Mexico’s business community, starting with practical IT.
