“We really picked Buffalo because we thought it was the right place for us to grow our business,” Ryan Sasson, the company’s CEO and co-founder, told The Buffalo News. “We felt the energy that was happening there and it was something we wanted to feed off of and really grow for the next decades to come in Buffalo.”
The new office is expected to open later this year. The firm plans to use temporary space beginning in July, and then move into a permanent space later this summer, according to the report.
