Went to Portland last week for the “Annual Tom Hulce Award Dinner” where non-profits, individual entrepreneurs, developing, working and growth capital companies received recognition for their achievements. Over 900 people and dozens of companies attended.

After the event I got a good sense of the higher-end business, entrepreneurship and angel/venture/investment banking community in Oregon and the Portland area. Some of the companies nominated this year in the clean technology and web field are:

AboutUs (wiki-like business profiles on web)
Bring Recycling (recycling building materials in Eugene, Oregon)
ClearEdge Power (5kw fuel cell units for $45k)
Plas2Fuel (recycling plastic into fuel)
PV Powered (converters for photovoltaics)
