  • This event has passed.

Join PDXWIT as we collaborate with the Oregon Venture Fund (OVF) for the annual OVF and Women in Tech’s Entrepreneur Pitch event!

Do you have a business idea that you think has potential, but you want some experts to weigh in? Or perhaps you’re already making your dream a reality, have some investment, and want to keep your momentum going? Perhaps you’re somewhere in between.

Get in front of OVF investors so they can provide you with informal, constructive feedback and connections. 90% of OVF investors have started or run a business at some point in their career, and this is a no-pressure way to tap into their connections and get early feedback from these local entrepreneurs and tech leaders.

Space is limited, so please be sure to register early.

Agenda:
5:00pm Doors Open/Networking
5:15pm Welcome, Introductions, Announcements
5:30pm Entrepreneur Pitches (3 mins & 2 min Q&A) – up to 12 companies
6:30pm Entrepreneurs/Investors Connect
7:30pm Event Ends

Entrepreneurs:
Sign up to get feedback on your business or idea, with the understanding that no business is too early or incomplete. Find out if you’ve got something that will grab the attention of investors. Slots are awarded on a first come, first served basis. Register early using the code Entrepreneur to secure your pitch. Limit 2 per company, and each person must register separately.
