EUGENE, OREGON
Strategy and operations consulting in Eugene.
Eugene–Springfield is a university and wood-products economy in the southern Willamette Valley, home to the University of Oregon and the track-and-field tradition that gave rise to Nike.
THE LOCAL ECONOMY
What drives business in Eugene.
The University of Oregon is the central institution, and athletics, including track meets at Hayward Field, are part of the local identity. Forest products remain important, with family-owned sawmills such as Seneca and a paper mill in Springfield. PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center anchors healthcare, and regional retailers Bi-Mart and Market of Choice are headquartered in Eugene.

WHAT COMPANIES HERE FACE
The decisions in front of Eugene management teams.
Wood-products firms face timber supply constraints, housing-market cycles and wildfire risk across their supply forests. Employers often compete with Portland and Bend for professional talent while offering lower costs. Many small software, food and outdoor companies started by university graduates must decide how to scale beyond the local market.
