Umpqua Growth Talks Will Return Soon!
Check back often for updates on Pitch Nights for Startups and Small Business for 2023-2024
Why We Do It
GrowthTalks is produced by Umpqua Economic Development Partnership. As a Douglas County economic development organization, part of what we focus on is workforce and entrepreneurial development. The ability of entrepreneurs to start new businesses and scale them is critical for future economic growth in our county. Our Pitch Night events will return soon, allowing us to grow our startup community and lead entrepreneurs down a pathway to success.
Pitch Night
We regularly hold Pitch Night events to support local entrepreneurs and small businesses. Prize funds can be used for startup costs, equipment purchases, and other expenses that are incurred when starting or growing a small business.
