Raising Capital

Southwest Washington has an exciting opportunity to be part of the Oregon Entrepreneurial Network!

The first SW Washington PubTalk was hosted by Landerholm, Memovich, Lansverk & Whitesides, P.S. on December 2, 2009. The focus was "Technology Start-up: What it takes and lessons learned." The PubTalk format provides an opportunity for entrepreneurs to learn about launching a company and have access to potential investors.

The room at Gustav's Pub and Grill in east Vancouver was packed and there was a lot of positive energy. Representatives from business support services, investors, and entrepreneurs were in attendance.

The event series is part of an effort by the Southwest Washington Workforce Development Council, CREDC, OEN, and others to revitalize the economy in SW Washington. The PubTalk series will continue on February 17, 2010 and will include an opportunity for entrepreneurs to pitch their ideas.
