As we rebuild from the pandemic, we are focusing this year's event on redefining our purpose as entrepreneurs, creating a more inclusive tech economy and discovering new solutions, ideas and inspiration.

One of America's premier cybersecurity reporters, the founder of a Eugene electric vehicle startup, an Oregon sex-tech disruptor, and the founder of a venture fund specifically for Black-founded startups will take the virtual stage.

As part of Angel Oregon Tech, nine entrepreneurs will be pitching at TFNW to a panel of investors for the opportunity to win a direct angel investment of up to $125K. AOTech is powered Oregon Entrepreneurs Network.

INCLUDE AWARDS

We’re thrilled to announce our sponsors SheerID, Schwabe, Williamson & Wyatt and Prosper Portland who are funding this year's Include Awards. The Include Awards were designed by Black Founders Matter in partnership with Oregon Entrepreneurs Network and TechfestNW to help bridge the gap of Friends & Family funding related to systemic wealth disparities that BIPOC entrepreneurs face.

Three companies led by BIPOC founders will receive an Include Award at our event on 5/21, which includes a $5,000 in non-dilutive capital to help further the development of the company. Thank you to our sponsors for making these important awards possible. Learn more about the awards.
