OEN PubTalk™ - Raising Money: Casting a wider net March 9, 2011

Oregon's entrepreneurial community is growing and thriving. In fact, Oregon entrepreneurs raised more than $200 million last year. Many of these companies have raised money in Oregon, but at some point, also made the decision to cast the funding net outside of the state.

Raising money for your company is never easy and looking out of state inevitably creates some new challenges such as; How do you go about getting connected to investors in other states? Do investors follow a different methodology when investing in companies outside of their state? Are most out of state investments done by VC firms or are there also angel investments?

Join us as we have a panel of experts discussing all aspects of out of state funding.

Event Panelists:
Chris DeVore, Founders Co-op (Seattle)
Chris Ulum, Agilyx
Scott Kveton, Urban Airship

Moderator:
Steve Morris, OTBC
