# Tech takes second at OEN’s Angel Oregon: Tellagence garners $94k

Another [Angel Oregon](http://www.oenangeloregon.org/ "Angel Oregon")—the [Oregon Entrepreneur Network’s (OEN)](http://www.oen.org "OEN") annual competition for Angel investment—has come and gone. And when the dust cleared? One of the few tech companies in the running landed in second place.

That’s right. [Tellagence](http://www.tellagence.com/ "Tellagence"), a tool that helps folks analyze and manage social media, garnered more $94,000 in funding. Pending due diligence, of course.

I don’t know who won first. I kind of start trailing off when people aren’t talking about tech. I have tunnel vision. So sue me.

“OEN’s Angel Oregon 2012 was a tremendous success; with a record $344,000 in angel investment raised from a record number of angels participate in the investment award.,” said Shelley Gunton OEN’s Angel Oregon 2012 program chair, in a press release. “Congratulations to all of the entrepreneurs and their companies who competed and took part in OEN’s Angel Oregon.”

Is it just me or are you looking forward to [Matt Hixson](https://twitter.com/matthixson "Matt Hixson")‘s [next video](http://www.thestudyofsocial.com/ "The Study of Social"), too?
