Portlanders, at least, will have a shot at making their pitches both in and out of Kickstarter at the OROR Festival’s Pitchfest on Tuesday, Sept. 9.

“We like to provide a platform for unusual personal research, things people have developed out of their own interest,” said festival co-founder Nim Wunnan.

That platform took shape last year at the inaugural OROR Festival, a non-competitive locally-focused companion to the XOXO Festival. The idea was essentially to craft a crowd sourced festival, one that lets Portlanders link their own individual ideas and concurrent events together.

via OROR Pitchfest will be a live Kickstarter for Portland projects: OROR Fest 2014 | OregonLive.com.
