An Interactive Experience Designed to Challenge and Inspire You

Friday, March 13, 2020  |    7:30am – 4:00pm

 

 

 

 

New Year, Entirely New Format

Join Oregon’s leading manufacturing companies to build resilient businesses through our powerful business strategy game. Used at organizations like Nike, and NASA, Industrial Game & Design’s (IGD) high-impact business simulation puts you in the driver’s seat of a mid-sized manufacturing company as you collaborate to overcome real-world business challenges and compete against other teams to unleash growth. Thousands of business leaders have played IGD’s simulations and 99% say its one of the best learning and networking experiences they’ve ever had.

We’ve expanded our event space and built a new summit format that allows for maximum interaction and discussion. You will hear from an inspiring keynote speaker  (details to be announced), and enjoy conversations on relevant topics with manufacturing leaders during fireside chats. Connect to state and regional resources designed to grow your business and learn about the future of Oregon’s robust manufacturing sector.

To provide the most value for attendees, our attendance is limited to manufacturing companies and select partner organizations. All ticket purchase requests will be reviewed. Thank you for understanding.
