Oregon University Venture Development Fund
PSU's world-class researchers partner with private-sector business expertise to commercialize novel technologies that create high-wage jobs and improve the quality of life here and elsewhere.
This translation of ideas from lab to market benefits students, who learn how to turn a dream into a business; faculty members, who receive licensing and royalty income to further their research; and Oregon's economy, which grows with new companies and jobs based on university research.
But it requires capital to put a promising idea to work in the real world.
Now you can help to create a vibrant economy for Oregon--and receive a generous tax credit for your investment--by supporting the University Venture Development Fund at Portland State. Read more, or contact Dianne Alves, Director of Major Gifts, (503) 725-5034, alves@pdx.edu.
