The Honorable Mark L. Madrid and Breakthrough Mavens, LLC have announced a strategic partnership with Latinhub TV, a new AI media company. The collaboration positions Madrid, a former U.S. Small Business Administration Associate Administrator, as Latinhub's Chief Sports & Small Business Ambassador and Advisory Board Member. This move integrates Madrid's entrepreneurship platform, relationship capital, and AI and media portfolio into a global expansion effort, signaling a significant step in leveraging artificial intelligence for business storytelling and audience engagement.
At an Austin event, the partnership launched Madrid's new books, 'The AI Transformation' and 'DISCIPLINE-Don't Get Hung Up on the Word!', and featured the world premiere of 'Markitos For the People,' an AI-powered digital twin series produced by Steve Mudd, CEO of Talentless AI. The microdrama, 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. According to Madrid, "Visibility is valuable. Enterprise is transformational. This partnership is about converting trusted relationships, powerful stories and emerging technology into opportunity at scale."
Eduardo Velasco, CEO of Latinhub TV, emphasized the alliance's potential: "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." Latinhub TV, powered by Agentic TV, operates as a multi-platform content engine monetized across Roku & OTT, in-store DOOH, web, mobile, and social channels, including Bodegas TV, its NYC-branded point-of-sale network. More information is available at latinhub.tv and bodegas.tv.
The Austin premiere kicked off a three-city tour continuing September 13 in Las Vegas and culminating in Washington, D.C. Madrid, as Economic Architect for America's Next 250, aims to keep entrepreneurs central to the nation's competitiveness ahead of its 250th anniversary, focusing on human capability, technological adoption, economic prosperity, and global reach. This initiative underscores the growing importance of AI in media and entrepreneurship, potentially reshaping how businesses engage audiences and scale operations. Madrid's role as Entrepreneur-in-Residence at NMSDC and Senior Executive Advisor to First National Bank of Bastrop further solidifies his influence in bridging technology and business. The partnership's global ambitions reflect a broader trend of integrating AI to drive economic growth and cultural connectivity.
