# Oregon startup news for the week ending June 27, 2025

This week in Oregon startup news, $60k+ awarded to TiE Oregon Columbia River Pitch winners, a couple of opportunities to meet startup folks throughout Oregon, a livestream watch party to get us all caught up on 2025 so far, and — of course — a secret or two if you hang until the end.
