Now in its eighth year, the Bend Venture Conference (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.
