create Calagator::Event 1250459159 OEN Workshop: What's your company worth? Everything you need to know about company valuation Roll back

description nil → As an early stage entrepreneur looking for the first round of funding, one of the most daunting tasks may be determining the valuation of your company. In this workshop, we will cover the basics of valuing a seed or launch stage company, and answer some questions, such as: • Who sets the valuation - the company or the investor? • What does pre-money and post-money valuation mean? How do I calculate it? • How do I value my company if we don’t yet have revenues? • How do investors determine the valuation? • How have valuations changed in the economic downturn? We'll explain the terminology, demystify the math and explain some of the ways that valuation is set during the funding process. There will be plenty of time for Q&A, so come armed with your questions and be ready to participate in a lively discussion about valuing early stage companies. OEN Member Registration: $30.00 Non-member Registration: $70.00

description nil → Two facts. One: Portlanders love breakfast. Two: Portland is blessed with a plethora of breakfast places just waiting to be tried. Dockside Saloon & Restaurant. This will be our second Infamous Portland History field trip. It was in their trash that the evidence incriminating Tonya Harding for clubbing Nancy Kerrigan was (poorly) hidden. PDX Breakfast is a very loosely affiliated group of folks who get together on alternate Thursdays to partake of Portland’s breakfast bounty. Generally somewhere between 4 and 12 folks show up for any given PDXBreakfast. We alternate sides of the river* and location selections are usually made by whoever shows up for breakfast. RSVPs are not required, but they are helpful because it helps waitstaff seat us appropriately. *We do go to North Portland for breakfast. Like all Portlanders, we tend to define location by east or west despite living in a city with 5 quadrants.
