Whether your convention, conference, retreat, trade show, etc. is large or small, the Oregon Convention Center can handle it, and handle it perfectly.  It is, after all, the largest convention center in this area of the country.

The Oregon Convention Center has two ballrooms, both large, and both ideal if you need a large single room for your conference, an actual ballroom for after-conference entertainment, or several small rooms right in the same area, for both ballrooms can be divided into several smaller rooms.
