RIGADO REUNITES A PORTLAND RARITY: SERIAL ENTREPRENEURS

Ever since I promised Bill Lynch that I would stop publishing pure “we got funded” sorts of stories, I’ve had a challenge. You see, people tend to drop press releases when they raise money. So it’s a good time to cover them. But if I chose to act on those releases, my posts couldn’t just be about the funding, I promised Bill. There had to be another angle.

I LIKE TURTLES: PORTLAND’S FAVORITE MEME TURNS 10

We’ve been lucky to have a few Portland memes go big. Usually around snow. Like Perfect Conditions. Or the cars sliding down icy hills. But one Portland meme tops them all. Zombie Kid. You know, the one who likes turtles. And that meme just turned 10 years old.

LOOKING FOR EARLY STAGE FUNDING?

While Oregon still has a ways to go in terms of building a self sustaining startup ecosystem, any number of folks have been doing an impressive job of building up our early stage funding resources throughout the state. And one of those groups of early stage investors, Cascade Angels, is looking for some more companies in which to invest.
