How to find the right startup investors in Portland, Oregon
Start with focus, not fame: the stage each investor takes, the sectors it backs and how many startups it has funded. Shortlist the VC firms that write checks at your stage, add the accelerators and incubators that take companies like yours, and write to each with your traction and your ask in the first three lines. An investor with many deals in your sector is a better first email than a famous name with none.
