About “Go Local”
“Go Local” is Syracuse University’s “commitment to leverage the economic power of the institution to improve regional economic inclusion” through four key areas: building, hiring, buying, and community connections.
The initiative seeks to broaden participation of local, minority, women and veteran-owned businesses in construction and service-contracting opportunities; expand hiring of local residents, with a focus on neighborhoods in need of job opportunities; and increase economic growth and employment in Syracuse through the university’s purchasing activities, the school said.
