Join us at Portland Gear Headquarters in the heart of the Pearl District for an evening that blends connection, conversation, and commerce. This special event brings together some of the region’s most innovative minds in fashion, apparel, and accessories ecommerce.

Whether you're scaling a DTC brand, managing a marketplace storefront, or just getting your ecommerce venture off the ground, this event is for you. You'll hear firsthand from industry leaders who’ve built loyal followings and turned great products into powerhouse brands:

• Marcus Harvey, Founder & CEO of Portland Gear

• MacCoy Merkley, CMO of Portland Leather Goods

We'll dig into how each of these founders and leaders navigated growth, overcame operational hurdles, built community, and stood out in a crowded online space.

Expect vibrant networking, actionable insights, and a chance to meet fellow ecommerce professionals shaping the future of retail in Portland and beyond.

This is more than a panel — it’s a chance to plug into the city's growing ecommerce scene, get inspired, and leave with ideas (and connections) to fuel your next move.
