    DATE: March 14, 2018 TO: Board of Commissioners FROM: Kimberly Branam, Executive Director SUBJECT: Report Number 18-07 Update on the Athletic and Outdoor Industry Cluster BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF INFORMATION ITEM No action is requested; information only. At the March 14, 2018 Prosper Portland Board of Commissioners (Board) meeting, staff will provide an overview of the Athletic and Outdoor industry cluster. Prosper Portland focuses its business development, retention, and expansion efforts on the following four traded sector industry clusters (industries whose firms sell most of their goods and services outside of the Portland region): Technology and Media, Athletic and Outdoor, Metals and Machinery, and Green Cities. These four industries provide the best opportunity for the agency to partner with the business community, harness economic growth, and increase middle-wage job opportunities for Portlanders. Over the past five years, Prosper Portland’s cluster strategy has contributed to the creation of 11,868 jobs in the prioritized industries, accounting for 77 percent of Prosper Portland’s total job creation contribution during this timeframe. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT AND OUTCOMES Prosper Portland’s traded sector economic development work delivers on key objectives of its 2015- 2020 Strategic Plan, particularly by supporting quality job growth and collaborating with partners for an equitable economy. The primary emphases for the agency’s cluster focus are to ensure that small, local businesses stay and expand in Portland and to further ensure that women and people of color benefit from business and employment growth. Within the Athletic and Outdoor industry cluster, staff’s business retention and expansion work primarily supports small- to medium-sized enterprises to enhance their growth and competitiveness.

  • POWER LIST: Here Are the 28 Most Outstanding People of Color Transforming the Sneaker Industry Today, from Designers to Influencers
    POWER LIST: Here are the 28 most outstanding people of color transforming the sneaker industry today, from designers to influencers • The sneaker industry is intrinsically bound to a variety of cultural influences, but that cultural impact is rarely seen beyond brands' outward messaging or campaigns. • For example, the sneaker industry is known to have roots in Black culture, but this does not correlate with the number of Black people in the industry as designers and executives. • But the pendulum is starting to swing. • Business Insider identified 28 outstanding people of color who are transforming the sneaker industry today. The sneaker industry has never existed in a silo. From designers to consumers, the field is intrinsically bound to an array of cultural influences. First and foremost, the sneaker community, as we know it today, has its roots in Black culture. Icons like Michael Jordon and Run DMC helped define the industry, while celebrities like Travis Scott and Beyonce give the industry relevance and excitement today. Of course, the sneaker world is also a cultural melting pot that includes a wide range of communities. Chitose Abe's Japan-based Sacai label has become a major global brand since its 1999 founding, for example, and has become a major name in streetwear, featuring collaborations with Nike and Beats by Dre. But when it comes to people of color in the sneaker industry, such cultural influences are rarely seen beyond a brand's outward messaging or campaigns. As the New York Times previously reported, fewer than 4.5% of the 1,700 Adidas employees at the Portland, Oregon, campus identified as Black, according to internal employment figures from the summer of 2019.

  • Sneaker Century, Follow Sneaker Fashions and the Larger-Than-Life Personalities Behind the Best Known Athletic Shoe Brands in History
    AMBER J. KEYSER SNEAKER CENTURY A HISTORY OF ATHLETIC SHOES WHETHER YOU CALL THEM KICKS OR SNEAKERS, RUNNERS OR GUTTIES, YOU PROBABLY HAVE A PAIR OF ATHLETIC SHOES IN YOUR CLOSET. The earliest sneakers debuted in the 1800s and weren’t much more than a canvas upper and a fl exible sole made of a crazy new material—rubber. For thousands of years, the indigenous peoples of the Amazon Basin of South America had been using latex made from the milky sap of hevea trees to protect their feet from rocks, sticks, and biting insects. Once Charles Goodyear fi gured out how to make the stuff more durable, sneakers were here to stay. Early sneakers were initially designed for elite athletes, but kids and teens quickly adopted them. Some of the fi rst brands included Converse, Brooks, and Saucony. German companies Adidas and Puma started up during World War II. The Nike shoe debuted in the 1970s. As fi tness crazes took off in the 1980s, people all over the world started buying the shoes for workouts and everyday wear. At about the same time, companies began hiring high-profi le athletes and pop stars for big-dollar endorsements, and shoe sales soared into billions of dollars each year. In Sneaker Century, follow sneaker fashions and the larger-than-life personalities behind the best known athletic shoe brands in history. Learn how teen sneakerheads became important style makers. Look behind the scenes at the labor- intensive process of manufacturing sneakers. Explore the sneaker frontier of the future—recycled shoes, earth-friendly initiatives, and high-fashion statements.
