# Angel Oregon: Three diverse Web-tech companies vie for funding

[Oregon Entrepreneurs Network (OEN)](http://www.oen.org "OEN") has announced the seven finalists gunning for funding in its annual Angel Oregon competition. Among the seven are three particular companies who have decidedly focused some angle of their offering on a Web play.

And since we all know the Web is near and dear to my heart, I’m going to focus on them.

I’m not guaranteeing a win. But were I a betting man, I’d be putting my money on one of these:

> [OsoEco](http://www.osoeco.com/ "Oso Eco") – OsoEco is positioned to exploit a significant gap in the E-commerce market for green products & services by launching the first Web-based “Sustainable Social Shopping” community w/a unique focus on local solutions. Members can connect, discover, research, and recommend green products & services to peers, interest groups and gurus.
> 
> [Powermand, Inc.](http://www.powermand.com/ "Powermand") – Web service and solution to aggregate many small electric loads into a large virtual load for monetizing as “negawatts.” Low cost service fee per site per month paid by the negawatts customer.
> 
> [Revelation](http://www.revelationglobal.com/ "Revelation") – Revelation creates web software that optimizes qualitative market research, enabling companies to develop and harness rich understanding of customer experiences, behaviors and needs at a fraction of the time and cost of traditional research techniques.
