Bringing Oregon together to celebrate, connect, and support our consumer product ecosystem.
We are excited to return with year two of the Built Up Festival – an event to celebrate the makers, brands, and regions that together, create Oregon’s unique consumer product tapestry.
As we did in 2017, this year will be full of community events over the week culminating in the Main Event at Ziba Design on 10/5.
Join us as we look to continue building an event that helps to position Oregon as the leader of consumer product entrepreneurship and innovation.
Community Events
Keep checking back as new ones will be added over the coming weeks!
The consumer product ecosystem in Oregon is one that is stitched together through stories, insights, and collaboration. In that vein, we have set up a series of fireside-type conversations — conversations that will look to bridge Oregon’s rich consumer product legacy, while highlighting current trends and innovations.
Main Event: Fireside Conversations
Program Emcee: Jordan Hayles, Founder of Radical Brand Lab
