Celebrating 100 Years of Connection, Leadership & Growth: Portland’s Premier Networking Community.

2026 isn’t just another year for the Oregon Executives Association—it marks our 100th Anniversary of bringing Portland’s business leaders together to build relationships, strengthen companies, and support one another’s success. For a full century, OEA has stood as a trusted community for connection, collaboration, and meaningful business relationships. And now, we’re ready to honor that legacy while boldly stepping into the future.

And we aren’t celebrating quietly—we’re celebrating in true OEA style. Throughout our Centennial year, we’ll be hosting a series of special events and experiences, including:

• Centennial Public Speaker Series. As part of its once-in-a-century celebration, OEA is proud to present the OEA Legacy & Leadership Speaker Series, featuring influential voices from business, civic leadership, and innovation. Held in the Rose Room at the Moda Center from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., each event will include lunch, connection, and a keynote conversation designed to spark fresh thinking and optimism about Portland’s business future. May, August, and November event dates to be announced shortly.
• Centennial Gala Dinner — Thursday, April 9th. A memorable evening at Eastmoreland Golf Club honoring past and present members, celebrating our history, and recognizing the leaders who helped shape OEA.
• Legacy & Leadership: Portland’s Networking Event of the Century! — Wednesday, October 21st. A large-scale networking celebration open to the public, designed to bring together the region’s business community like never before.

If you believe in the power of authentic relationships, trusted partnerships, and strong business leadership, this is the year to get involved with OEA.
