For 20 years, the connections that have been made at Bend Venture Conference (BVC) have inspired and energized new ideas and creative solutions. That’s what BVC is all about. We know not everyone can join us for two full days of programming. If that is you, our networking ticket provides access to Thursday evening’s Networking Reception at Tetherow Resort and Friday morning’s Boozy Breakfast at The Oxford.
Don’t miss the premier conference of the year!
