Mariana Atencio took the world by storm in 2017 when her TEDx talk “What Makes YOU Special?” went viral. To date, it has over 17 million views and has been translated into 13 languages. Focused on the power of authenticity, her book Perfectly You was an Amazon Best Seller and selected by Audible and AppleBooks. She’s quickly become one of the most sought-after motivational speakers, founding her own media company, GoLike, and teaming up with Microsoft, YouTube, the World Health Organization and the United Nations, among others. A former anchor and reporter for NBC and MSNBC, her work has been honored with a Peabody Award, a Columbia University’s “First Decade Award” and the National Association of Hispanic Journalists Presidential Award.

“Our communities were disproportionately affected during the pandemic but have continued to beat the odds,” said Atencio. “This year’s ADCOLOR theme ‘Still Rising’ represents that spirit to overcome obstacles with grit, creativity and grace. I am excited to bring that sabor on stage this year!”

“Bing and Mariana are both undoubtedly innovators in their respective industries and communities, and are examples of trailblazers that constantly challenge the status quo,” said ADCOLOR Founder and President, Tiffany R. Warren. “ADCOLOR was founded on the idea of celebrating changemakers like them, so I am honored to have them both be a part of such a significant event for our organization.”

The ADCOLOR Conference is part of ADCOLOR 2022, taking place in Los Angeles, California from November 17 – 20, 2022 at the JW Marriott LA Live. It marks the long-awaited return to a fully in-person gathering following a virtual-only event in 2020 and a smaller, hybrid event in 2021. A limited number of in-person conference tickets still remain available for purchase.
