Local founders and investors get candid about capital in the Gorge.About this EventJoin Mid-Columbia Innovation Hub for our April HubTalk: Investing In The GorgeCapital is moving into the Gorge. The question is how, and what it actually looks like when an investor and a founder find each other in a region like ours.This HubTalk is a conversation we keep coming back to: what it takes to attract investment to a rural economy, what investors are looking for in early-stage companies, and what the experience of raising capital is actually like from both sides of the table.This panel brings together local founders and investors for a candid look at deals that got done, what made them work, and what the path forward looks like for businesses building here.If you're a founder thinking about outside investment (or just curious about how capital flows in a region like the Gorge) this is a conversation worth being in the room for.Light bites available -- Cash bar (and NAs) available from The Ruins.HubTalks are a monthly networking and informational event hosted by Mid-Columbia Innovation Hub and Mid-Columbia Economic Development District. They occur every 2nd Thursday of the month at 5:30pm. HubTalks are open to the public, with no membership required. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/hood-river/april-hubtalk-investing-in-the-gorge/100001985086835161 - **Event Categories**: - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fapril-hubtalk-investing-in-the-gorge-tickets-1985086835161 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Hood River - **state**: OR - **country**: United States - **location**: The Ruins - **lat**: 45.70864419999999 - **long**: -121.5093806 - **full address**: The Ruins, 13 Railroad Street, Hood River, United States ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Mid-Columbia Innovation Hub (https://allevents.in/org/mid-columbia-innovation-hub/25101025) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/9cf9351dd6acf3de6429d184a92ee6eebf257c71c876afb3f8825e8d288b041a-rimg-w1200-h630-dc134234-gmir.jpg?v=1773385248 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/3c87b24dd7f9d196cf0a371876432172fac732ba635c239f6fdc6f1415d9d42d-rimg-w400-h400-dc134335-gmir.jpg?v=1773385247 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Thu, 09 Apr, 2026 at 05:30 pm (-07:00) - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** The Ruins, 13 Railroad Street, Hood River, United States - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Mid-Columbia Innovation Hub - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about April HubTalk: Investing In The Gorge ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "April HubTalk: Investing In The Gorge", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/9cf9351dd6acf3de6429d184a92ee6eebf257c71c876afb3f8825e8d288b041a-rimg-w1200-h630-dc134234-gmir.jpg?v=1773385248", "startDate": "2026-04-09T17:30:00-07:00", "endDate": "2026-04-09T19:30:00-07:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/hood-river/april-hubtalk-investing-in-the-gorge/100001985086835161", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "The Ruins", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "13 Railroad Street", "postalCode": "97031", "addressLocality": "Hood River", "addressRegion": "OR", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "45.70864419999999", "longitude": "-121.5093806" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "What does investment actually look like in a rural economy?
