Oregon Innovation Showcase
- Location
- Sentinel Hotel, Portland
Oregon's annual Innovation Showcase, presented by Business Oregon, focuses on deep tech, innovation-driven, scalable companies that may take over five years to develop, setting it apart from software or consumer products. Don’t miss the chance to network with investors and explore successful companies, emerging deep tech startups, and the state’s supportive ecosystem.
Enjoy the Showcase's opening reception on the evening of the 19th, with the Keynote Speech at 7pm, followed by the conference program on May 20. Visit the event website directly for details.
Organizers hope that the Showcase will be a lively nexus to develop and strengthen relationships with deep tech investors, including those from out of state, by highlighting Oregon as a premier hub for innovation and startups. The event will feature successful Oregon-grown companies, emerging startups seeking funding and the supportive state ecosystem that de-risks investments.
