ODA 100.
ODA 100 is a proposed grant program for founders with a new idea or an early-stage business. As proposed, applications would be free and reviewed by an independent panel, and five finalists would pitch live at ODA.
It would be a grant, not an investment, so no equity is taken. Supporting it would not give anyone a say in who is selected. The program, its rules and the size of the award are pending approval by the National Albanian Registry board and legal review.
What happens next.
How we’ll know it worked
By what comes out of the day: clients won, partners found, people hired and ideas funded. Sponsors hear what came of it.
Still being decided
Speakers and the full program. We’ll post each one here as the board confirms it.
After you sign up
The registry contacts every sponsor about tables, tickets and the logo files we need.
About ODA.
ODA brings together Albanian Americans, men and women of every generation and industry, with the American companies and investors who want to work with them.
The name comes from the oda, the guest room of an Albanian house, where people could speak freely among those they trusted. When teaching in Albanian was forbidden, it happened there in secret. For most of its history it was a room for men only. ODA is open to everyone.
In 1892 Kolë Kristofori, remembered as the first Albanian to settle in America for good, arrived in Boston with seventeen young men from his village near Korça. Many Albanian American families have a story like it.
Opportunity
Clients, partners, jobs and deals with people you might never have met otherwise.
Direction
Straight answers from people who have built companies, raised money and run teams.
Advancement
A community that grows here and works more closely with Albania and Kosova.
