International Visitors are individuals who have been identified by U.S. government officials as either current or future leaders in their home countries.  They work at both the local and national level, and their professional interests span all fields.  Most delegates hosted by IIB are participants in the U.S. Department of State's International Visitor Leadership Program or the Open World Program.

If you would like to meet with any of these groups at your place of work, host them for dinner, or accompany them to Niagara Falls or cultural events, please contact Julienne Mascellino at (716) 883-1900, ext. 328, or jmascellino@iibuff.org.
