There is much to admire in Arizona business

This is always one of the most popular issues of Az Business magazine because it features the annual list of the Most Admired Companies in Arizona. As always, this year’s list of honorees is stellar, including seven companies who have made the list of Most Admired Companies for all seven years of the program’s existence.

But beyond the list of the Most Admired Companies, this issue
of Az Business showcases four organizations that are also driving the economy in Arizona:

  • Read about the Arizona Bioindustry Association (AZBio), which is driving the exploding economy surrounding life sciences and will host Arizona Bioscience Week beginning Sept. 18.
  • Learn more about the Arizona Technology Council, which is a driving force in making Arizona a technology hub. The Tech Council will honor many of its members’ successes at the Governor’s Celebration of Innovation in November.
  • Find out how the Arizona Society for Human Resources Management (AZSHRM) engages, educates and is an advocate for all Arizona human resources professionals and the business community at large.
  • Read how the Meeting Professionals International (MPI) Arizona Sunbelt Chapter is driving the state’s tourism industry and taking steps to make meetings and conventions more healthy and more safe.
  • Enjoy learning about the innovators and leaders that are driving our economy in this issue of Az Business.
