Oregon Business Plan Leadership Summit 2026

Oregon stands at a pivotal moment. The era of automatic growth is over, and many of our systems—built for yesterday’s problems—no longer match today’s realities. Yet Oregon’s story has always been one of possibility. From our natural assets to the ingenuity of our people, this state has a long history of transforming constraints into progress and risk into renewal.

This year’s Summit carried that tradition forward. Together, business, community, and elected leaders faced hard truths with clear eyes, elevated new ideas, and explored the strategies required to build an economy worthy of Oregon and the generations to come.
