Shot on location in Los Angeles, the inaugural season of EMPRENDEDORES will follow six diverse and dynamic businesses as they confront issues ranging from business planning and marketing to staffing and employee relations. Businesses profiled include a family-owned boxing gym, a coffee shop and a scooter sales business.

Host, entrepreneur, former news anchor and published author Angelica Atondo works with each of the business owners and their families to assess their unique situation. The hopeful entrepreneurs are then mentored by brothers Sean and Kenny Salas, two successful Hispanic businessmen and consultants, who delve into the family dynamics, their business operations, and provide much needed guidance to help put them on the path to profitability.

"EMPRENDEDORES features real-life stories of Latino families who have given everything to pursue their dreams of having their own business and forge a future for their families in the United States", says Angélica Atondo. "Personally, this project touches on 3 of my greatest joys: help others, provide support for small business owners, and do it on television, my greatest passion. I am proud to connect with these stories and desires to thrive and succeed in life."

Viewers can take a deeper dive into the world of EMPRENDEDORES with additional features and content on Discovery en Español's social media platforms including behind the scenes and in-depth videos, business tips from the host and mentors, and interviews with talent.
