# Portland startup community recognized with a number of Technology Association of Oregon awards

Last night, the [Technology Association of Oregon (TAO)](http://techoregon.org "TAO") held their annual Oregon Tech Awards celebration gala, their biggest event of the year. (Coincidentally, [GeekWire held their big Seattle tech awards last night](https://www.geekwire.com/events/geekwire-awards-2018-presented-wave-business/), too.) And the Portland startup community was well represented.

Among the award recipients were:

- Tech Champion: [Angela Jackson](https://twitter.com/abjackson "Angela Jackson"), [Portland Seed Fund](http://portlandseedfund.com/) and Portland State University
