Nominations will soon end for Az Business Magazine’s Industry Leaders of Arizona Awards, which honors the top leaders in a select industry each year. 

This year’s honored industries include: aerospace/defense, software development/data support, commercial and residential service contractors, food & beverage (non-hospitality) and healthcare support services. 

The deadline for nominations is Tuesday, Sept. 5, and you can submit your nominations here 

“The Industry Leaders of Arizona Awards are unique in that the categories shift each year,” says AZ Big Media Editor in Chief Michael Gossie. “The economy of Arizona is so diverse and robust, it’s nice to shift the focus each year and allow each sector of the economy to have its moment in the spotlight. It also reflects on the diversity of the state and the business environment that we are able to showcase such amazing companies from different sectors each year. That’s what makes ILoA special.” 

The Industry Leaders of Arizona Awards recognize the contributions and impact of Arizona‐based companies on both the economy of Arizona and in the communities, they serve. 

Last year, Az Business honored eight Industry Leaders of Arizona with spotlight awards during its annual awards ceremony. Commercial general contractors, education, entertainment, financial services and technology industries were honored last year, and many firms were named as Industry Leaders of Arizona
