CHAMBER ROUNDTABLE + TOUR: INSIDE INTERNATIONAL PAPER
Responsible manufacturing is fostered through commitment to sustainability and community stewardship, as exemplified by local industry innovator, International Paper.
Last year, Chamber members got a rare behind-the-scenes look at one of Lane County’s largest employers and the 2025 Springfield Area Chamber of Commerce Pillar of the Community, International Paper, during October 2025 Roundtable + Tour.
Missed the last tour? Here's your second chance. Join the Springfield Chamber for a Roundtable + Tour at International Paper’s Springfield Containerboard Mill to learn about the global leader in sustainable, fiber-based packaging. Participants will gain an inside look at the people, processes, and policies shaping one of our region’s most significant manufacturing operations.
Mill Manager, Matt Vaughn, and Regional Government Affairs Representative, Cynthia Leon will share insights into the history behind the company's work, IP's community impact, and the mill workforce. Following this discussion, attendees will tour the facility and hear about how IP implements responsible manufacturing practices in their innovative operations.
If you are interested in the local manufacturing industry, sustainable business operations, or community stewardship, this Roundtable + Tour provides an exciting chance to explore how International Paper is supporting economic growth and strengthening the local community through innovative package-making processes.
This Chamber Roundtable + Tour is limited to 30 attendees.
