Ask most startups around town about the challenges they’re experiencing and I can pretty much guarantee “finding talent” will be somewhere in the top 3. These days, it’s usually problem number one. And that’s why TechFestNW is working to help. By hosting a Talent Fair that helps Portland companies connect with local talent.

If you’re a business looking to hire tech talent, there’s still time to get involved with the TFNW Talent Fair. If you’re looking for work, you can attend the TFNW Talent Fair for $10 with no requirement to purchase a full pass to TechFestNW.
And if you’d like to attend TFNW and MusicFestNW, there’s still time to grab passes to those events, as well.
