# GadgetTrak and WeoGeo make OEN Angel Oregon final round

I’m happy to report that [GadgetTrak](http://gadgettrak.com/ "GadgetTrak") and [WeoGeo](http://weogeo.com/ "WeoGeo") have been selected for the final round of [OEN Angel Oregon 2009](http://www.oen.org/events_ao.aspx "OEN Angel Oregon 2009") competition, “the nation’s premier investor/entrepreneur matchmaking event.”

That puts the two companies in the running for a first place prize of $150,000 or a second prize of $75,000.

For those of you who haven’t yet encountered these two cool Portland companies, [GadgetTrak](http://siliconflorist.com/2008/10/14/gadgettrak-goes-mobile/ "GadgetTrak") is “the company that turns your stolen electronic devices into a sentient Neighborhood Watch for nabbing thieves.” While [WeoGeo](http://siliconflorist.com/2008/07/18/weogeo-outlook-cloudy-and-thats-a-good-thing/ "WeoGeo") “supplies surveyors, engineers, cartographers, and scientists with the ability to conveniently store, search, and exchange global mapping and geo-content.”

So who is the competition? The Biotech/CleanTech track features [DesignMedix](http://www.designmedix.com/ "DesignMedix") and [Tau Science Corporation](http://www.tauscience.com/ "Tau Science") and the Consumer track features [Glide Cycle](http://www.glidecycle.com/ "Glide Cycle") (I could not stop watching their demo video… something strangely mesmerizing about it) and [Wicked Quick](http://www.wickedquick.com/ "Wicked Quick").

There are also 20 other companies who get to fly through a one minute elevator pitch—but unfortunately I don’t have their names, yet.

Now, I’m hoping the tech folks can do us proud. We’re still trying to recover from 2008, when Angel Oregon selected an [apparel company](http://siliconflorist.com/2008/03/05/oen-announces-the-winner-of-angel-oregon-and-its-not-a-tech-company/ "Angel Oregon 2008") as the winner.

The Angel Oregon 2009 event will be held March 12 at the Governor Hotel. For more information, see [OEN Angel Oregon 2009 on Upcoming](http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1448992/ "OEN Angel Oregon 2009") or [Calagator](http://calagator.org/events/1250456067 "Angel Oregon on Calagator").
