Please note that we have a new site: LifeScienceHistory.com, "Where history is made daily" under development and
delayed by COVID-19, to be launched in 2023 replacing WashingtonLifeScience.com. Regrettably, we are working with reduced
staffing and the current industry directory is no longer being maintained, but will be replaced with a new and improved
directory upon the launch of the new site. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Oregon Investment Fund
| | | Phone: | (503) 274-2732 | Fax: | (503) 274-9500 | Year Established: | 2003 | Main Contact: | Kelly M. Williams, Managing Director | | Company Description | In July 2003, HB 3613 was passed in the Oregon State Legislature and enacted a mandate for the Oregon Investment Council ("OIC") to design and implement a $100 mm program that encourages the growth of small businesses within the state of Oregon. To accomplish this mandate the OIC chose to develop a fund of funds, the Oregon Investment Fund ("OIF"). This fund, which is capitalized by funds from the OIC, has committed capital to private equity and venture capital funds that in turn invest in companies located primarily in the state of Oregon, as well as the Pacific Northwest region. In addition, a percentage of the assets of the OIF may be invested directly into operating companies alongside the OIF's private equity and venture capital managers. The OIC chose Credit Suisse's Customized Fund Investment Group to develop and manage this Fund on a discretionary basis. | |
