The Oregon Youth Venture Fund will promote youth entrepreneurship and inspire young entrepreneurs, investing capital to help them develop their business and test new ideas. The Fund also aims to create a network of support, offering guidance and mentorship from established business leaders helping provide a path to success.

Entrepreneurship is the engine that drives the creation of new businesses and the generation of wealth and new jobs. It is important to recruit and support the next generation of entrepreneurs and give them the opportunity to develop and test new business ideas.

Winning applicants will be awarded $2,000 each to be reinvested into their company. In addition, each winning applicant will receive advice and support from a member of the Oregon Youth Venture Fund. Winning applicants of the Sustainability Entrepreneurship Award will also receive advice and support from a member of the Oregon Youth Venture Fund along with a $4,000 reward.
