Ever since our beginning as the Portland Chamber of Commerce in 1870, Portland's business community has helped create one of the nation's best places to live and work.

The Alliance is dedicated to providing value to our members and working in partnership with other organizations to build a vibrant Central City and regional economy.

Our mission, vision, goals, values and strategic considerations reflect our membership. We strive to be a member-driven organization in all that we do.

We serve our members by providing them with opportunities to grow their businesses, learn new skills, support other businesses in their community and access to members' only savings and discounts.

We help our members lead their region by providing strategic partnerships and expert public-policy advocacy. We build the vitality of the Central City by operating one of the nation's oldest and most successful Downtown Improvement Districts.
