Now in its ninth year, the Bend Venture Conference (BVC) promises to be the best yet!  This year's conference features keynote speaker Daymond John, founder of FUBU and one of the sharks on ABC's Shark Tank. 

The BVC is the premier regional event connecting seed and early stage companies with investment opportunities and attracts over 300 of the Pacific Northwest's top entrepreneurs, investors, and business leaders.  Held at the historic Tower Theatre in downtown Bend, Oregon, the event includes intimate pre-conference seminar opportunities, a networking reception, the full day venture conference and the opportunity to explore Bend’s lively hotel, restaurant and downtown scene.   

Advance registration is available only online. Due to facility capacity, space is limited and early registration is encouraged. Check-in and packet pick up will be available at the Pre-Conference Networking Reception at Broken Top Club on Thursday, Oct. 18th from 5:30-8:30pm and again at 7:30am on Friday, October 19th in the lobby of the Tower Theatre. Should additional seating be available, day-of registration will be offered at 7:30am on Friday, October 19th at the Tower Theatre (checks and credit cards only).
