Who We Are

Building Community.
Creating Connections.

TechBuffalo is a nonprofit organization building a sustainable, inclusive, and accessible tech ecosystem – creating the talent density needed for companies to thrive right here in Western New York.

At TechBuffalo, we believe that talent powers modern economies. So, what if Buffalo was the best at growing, retaining, and attracting it? If we win on talent, we win on economic growth, innovation, and competitiveness.

Put simply: TechBuffalo exists to make that happen.

TechBuffalo activates talent, engages employers, and builds Buffalo’s advantage. We work to align students and families, educators, employers, workforce partners, and civic leadership to grow the talent pipeline and power Buffalo’s innovation economy.
