Venture capital is a form of risk equity financing provided by professionally managed firms/funds to emerging and later-stage companies believed to have high growth potential or those having demonstrated high growth in terms of number of employees, annual revenue or both.

Get in on the ground floor of Oregon’s most important emerging sectors, and meet entrepreneurs literally building the future right now.
Join us for the Angel Oregon Life & Bioscience (AOBIO) Grand Finale, on Wednesday, May 17th, 2023, from 3pm to 7pm at Amaterra Winery in Portland.
Four startup founders will be in the running to earn an equity investment from the AOBIO investor group (you can join the investment until May 17th!). They'll pitch their companies on the main stage, and this year’s AOBIO Emerge Award, will be presented.
At the end of the day will be the Big Check Moment, sponsored by OBI/OTRADI where AOBIO Investors will announce which of the finalists have earned the collective angel investment, which could be as much as $300,000!
Program details and finalists will be announced closer to the event. Registration is now open! Tickets will also be available for purchase at the door on the day of the event.
