If you missed the annual Oregon Entrepreneurs Network awards gala, you may be curious as to who walked away with recognition at the 30th annual OEN Entrepreneurship Awards. Well, I want you to be up-to-date on the latest and greatest. So here’s a quick list of who won…

Organizing events can be a chore. Granted, they’re high value. But they’re also a heavy lift. But what if someone took care of everything and you and your crew just had to show up, spend time together, and celebrate all that you’ve accomplished this year…? That’s the idea behind Radious Worksgiving.

Interested in sharing your thoughts on the impact of the recent elections with fellow startup founders and startup support organizations…? The Portland Metro Region Innovation Hub is hosting a virtual listening session to do just that.

I’m always a fan of more support structure for entrepreneurs in the region. That’s why I was happy to see the new Oregon Startup Center Nonprofit Incubator coming to fruition. Just as compelling…? An entrepreneur has stepped up to lead the organization. Mark Lewis has taken the helm.

There’s been a bit of a lull in hiring around these parts. So it’s always nice to hear when new companies — startup or otherwise — are hiring. Beaverton’s Leanpath is one of the companies looking for talent.

Portland tends to be big on “anecdotal evidence.” You know, like where we claim we’re the “de facto hub” of things…? So I always like it when folks provide some data driven insights to help us better understand what’s happening — or not happening — here in comparison to other startup communities. Peter Walker of Carta has done just that.

Interested in learning more about who is build what with AI in the Portland startup community…? Well, get ready to be happy. Because Oregon Venture Fund has put together another PDX AI Demo Night to showcase what’s happening with local AI startups.
