If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that it will be impossible to project an accurate economic outlook for 2025. But we can accurately examine the people and the companies who are most likely to have the biggest impact on Arizona’s economy in 2025. That’s where the AZ Big 100 for 2025 comes into play.

“Influential individuals and companies can significantly impact a state’s economy by driving innovation, creating jobs and attracting investments,” says AZ Big Media Publisher Amy Lindsey. “Their success often stimulates local industries and boosts consumer spending. Additionally, they can influence public policy, support community development, and enhance the state’s competitiveness. Their philanthropic efforts also contribute to social welfare, further strengthening economic resilience and growth.”

The AZ Big 100 — which is published each January in Az Business and AZRE magazines — spotlights those 100 individuals and companies who will help shape Arizona’s business landscape in 2025. Know of a business or person who is making an impact? Nominate them today for the The AZ Big 100.
