Oregon RAIN, a nonprofit program to help turn homegrown innovation into companies and jobs, is hiring a candidate to work with entrepreneurs on the coast, between Florence and Lincoln City.
RAIN, which stands for Regional Accelerator and Innovation Network, is a consortium of government, higher education and business communities in Lane, Linn, Benton and Lincoln counties.
The consortium recently posted an opening for a “Coastal Venture Catalyst,” which is a one-year contracted position, made possible through a $50,000 grant from the Ford Family Foundation and financial support from the city of Florence and Lincoln County.
