The nomination process for the 2008 ACE Awards has now begun.  Please see the Nomination Form page for downloadable forms and instructions if you should like to review the information we need to have.

Our Mission

The largest private companies in Arizona generated revenues of over $14 billion last year. They employed over 35,000 employees in the State of Arizona and over 56,000 worldwide. These companies are very important to the economy of Arizona and to the families of their employees.

These companies deserve the recognition of the community and their peers for their investment in this state. The ACE Awards sponsors invite these companies to submit an application to join this select group of companies.

Now in its 14th year, the 2008 ACE Awards event was held Thursday night, September 4, 2008.  This event is an invitation-only event, open to the winning companies on the lists each year and the sponsors.

The goals of the ACE Awards are to develop an increasing sense of knowledge sharing and community among private companies. Through participation in the program, the ACE Awards will provide a means for executives at all levels to enhance their personal networks. 

This ACE Awards program also gives much-deserved recognition to many private companies they would not normally enjoy.  We are glad to give these companies such recognition.
