I received a very interesting email the other day from an individual who works for the state of Oregon seeking to forge ties with high tech companies abroad. They don’t have a great deal of resources, but they do have some contacts, and are open to dealing with even relatively small organizations.

I have to say that there is some really interesting stuff happening in Oregon in terms of open source lately (beyond Linus Torvalds living there), so if any European companies, or university professors are interested in going over to have a look, I’d be more than happy to pass the information along.
