The award ceremony was a true celebration of the best in Oregon entrepreneurship. Ray King, our founder and CEO, kept up the jovial energy throughout the ceremony with his witty anecdotes, not to mention his amazing Madonna impersonation. And now for the winners… Kudos to long time AboutUs friend Sam Blackman, who won the Individual Achievement award. It was a double win for Sam and his team – Sam’s company, Elemental Technologies, also won in the Working Capital category. We’re especially proud of Elemental, as they are an AboutUs sister company – we are both funded by Voyager Capital. Wendy Strgar, CEO of Good Clean Love, kept the crowd laughing with her sincere and amusing acceptance speech for her company’s win in the Development Category. Strgar highlighted her company’s core values by emphasizing how important good sexual health is to everyone’s health and happiness. Her cheerful attitude and sincerity were contagious. Finally, Avnera Corporation, manufacturers of wireless audio technology, won in the Growth Stage category. Avnera is growing like crazy and creating more jobs in Oregon. Avnera produces wireless speakers, surround sound and whole home audio, in addition to multi-point wireless voice applications for headsets and microphones. AboutUs congratulates all nominees for their hard work. We commend all of you for building fabulous companies in Oregon and wish you much future success!
