Buffalo Homecoming is a three-day annual event in which Western New York expats will interact with local policy makers, entrepreneurs and organizers; attend seminars, discussions, tours and entertainment; and reconnect with their hometown and experience its renaissance.
The end goal of the campaign is to leverage these expats – each with expertise and a large network outside of the region in their chosen field – to better Buffalo Niagara through philanthropy, capital investments, meaningful connections, and more.
While the COVID-19 pandemic has altered the ability for travel and in-person gatherings, the Buffalo Homecoming team is pivoting to a virtual world. The team busy organizing a series of virtual events that will occur Dec. 9, 10 and 11.
