PORTLAND, Ore. and WASHINGTON, Feb. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- The Oregon Technology Investor Tour was started four years ago as a way to provide a unique opportunity for the financial investment community to experience Oregon public technology companies first-hand, meet their management teams, demonstrate products and take company tours if applicable. Now in its fifth year, the tour continues to grow in popularity among investors who consider it a refreshing change from the traditional financial conferences around the nation.
The tour is scheduled for the week of August 20-24, 2007. Six Oregon public technology companies have already committed to participate: Cascade Microtech, Inc. , ESI Inc. , FEI Company , InFocus Corporation , Planar Systems , and RadiSys Corporation . AeA expects up to 10 public technology companies to participate. Company sessions will be held at individual company sites, with each company having a 1 1/2 - 3 hour session.
"The real values in the Oregon Technology Investor Tour are that investors and analysts can derive more value from a single trip, experience a given company first-hand at its location, hear from the company's management about product details, have access to more of a company's management team, demo products, and tour the company's facilities," said Jennifer Bosze, Executive Director of AeA's Oregon Council. "From the company's perspective, it is a great opportunity to band together to raise the profile of Oregon public technology companies and combine efforts to attract a larger financial investment audience to Oregon."
