Empowering Innovation and Leadership Through the TiE Oregon Foundation

The TiE Oregon Foundation is dedicated to fostering innovation, entrepreneurship, and leadership in communities that have historically been underserved and underrepresented. Through our comprehensive technical assistance, mentorship, and educational initiatives, we are committed to transforming ideas into thriving businesses, creating jobs, and empowering the next generation of leaders.

Our cornerstone programs—TiE Young Entrepreneurs (TYE), TiE XL Entrepreneur Boot Camp, TiE Women, and TiE University —are designed to provide targeted support and resources that meet the unique needs of aspiring entrepreneurs at every stage of their journey.
