2025 OAPA/WP/TIPD Planning Conference Sponsorships Available
This year’s conference is unlike any we’ve hosted before. The Oregon Chapter of the American Planning Association (OAPA) is proud to partner with Western Planner (WP) and the APA Tribal & Indigenous Planning Division (TIPD) to bring together planners and professionals from across the West to explore innovative, place-based solutions to the region’s most pressing challenges.
Sponsoring the conference provides a unique opportunity to participate in meaningful knowledge creation and knowledge sharing with planning professionals from across the Pacific Northwest and beyond. It’s your chance to align your organization with forward-thinking leadership, build valuable relationships, and demonstrate your commitment to resilient, inclusive, and innovative planning.
We welcome your partnership and look forward to showcasing your support of this important regional gathering.
