About
Oregon builds the Agentic AI era.
We're a coalition of founders, operators, researchers, students, and civic partners who believe Oregon has the talent, values, and grit to shape AI for the better and the responsibility to do so on our own terms.
Why now
AI is being defined this decade. Most of that definition is happening in a handful of zip codes. Oregon has world-class research, hardware roots, a creative software community, and tight-knit cities where new things actually get built. We don't need to copy anyone - we need to organize.
What we are
A private-sector, non-partisan coalition. We connect people building and applying AI in Oregon - across companies, campuses, and counties and we invest our time in the things that move the ecosystem forward: talent pipelines, founder support, responsible deployment, and a clear voice for Oregon in national AI policy.
What we are not
We're not a government program, a lobbying shop, or a single company's project. We're the people who want to seize this moment — to build, lead, and flourish in the AI era. We're inviting everyone who shares that goal to pull on the rope.
