Expat Culture Networks

Homeis is a Culture Network for Local Foreign-Born Communities

— December 12, 2017 — World
Immigration is both a physical and an emotional upheaval, and Homeis is a new social platform to help people ease the transition between their new home and their place of birth. The platform is designed to connect expats and foreign-born people with others living through a similar experience in their new locality.

Rather than connecting people who come from the same places exclusively, Homeis looks to create foreign-born communities around people living in the same cities post-immigration. The idea is to strengthen the expat communities in those areas and to help those people find a place to express themselves online.

To be sure, Homeis still connects people of similar descent. One of the benefits of the app is its convenience for common activities like sending care packages back and forth from one's ancestral home through the network of users who might be traveling at any time.
Trend Themes
1. Expatriate Social Networks - The trend of expatriate social networks is disrupting traditional social platforms by providing a space specifically designed for foreign-born communities to connect and support each other.
2. Localized Expat Communities - The trend of creating localized expat communities allows foreign-born individuals to find and connect with others who are going through a similar immigration experience in their new city, fostering a sense of belonging and support.
3. Digital Cultural Bridge - The trend of digital cultural bridge platforms like Homeis provides an innovative solution for expats to express themselves, find resources, and maintain connections with their home countries, bridging the gap between their new home and place of birth.
Industry Implications
1. Social Networking - The social networking industry can benefit from incorporating features specific to expatriate communities, offering a more tailored experience for foreign-born individuals seeking connection and support during their transition.
2. Immigration Services - Industries that provide immigration services can leverage expat culture networks like Homeis to enhance their offerings and provide added value to their clients through increased social integration and support mechanisms.
3. Online Communities - Online community platforms can explore opportunities to cater to the unique needs of expatriate communities by creating specialized spaces for foreign-born individuals to connect, interact, and share their experiences.
