Bolieiro says the Azores are "with open arms" to the return of the diaspora

Açoriano Oriental12 September 2026 at 15:41

The president of the Regional Government of the Azores, José Manuel Bolieiro, said on Friday that the archipelago is "with open arms" to the return of the Azorean diaspora. This statement comes in the context of an event dedicated to welcoming emigrants who wish to return to the region.

Bolieiro highlighted that there are investment opportunities in various sectors, namely in tourism, the real estate market, the blue economy, and new technologies. These sectors are identified as areas with potential to receive the capital and knowledge brought by returning emigrants.

The regional government thus expresses its intention to attract back the Azoreans who emigrated over the decades, seeking to capitalize on the experience and financial resources that they can contribute to the economic development of the archipelago.

Why this matters

Readers in the Azores, especially those with connections to the Azorean diaspora, learn that the regional government is encouraging the return and investment, with emphasis on key sectors of the local economy. This position can influence decisions of Azorean emigrants who are considering returning or investing in the archipelago.
