The Greater Phoenix Chamber has opened nominations for its 2026 Excellence in Business Awards, which aim to recognize the achievements of organizations that have made a positive impact in the Greater Phoenix area.
The awards program, established in 1987, has a long history of honoring businesses throughout the region. This year marks the launch of the newly named Excellence in Business Awards, designed to highlight outstanding businesses across the Valley.
Nominations are being accepted from all members of the community until Friday, February 13, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Submissions can be made through the Chamber’s website at www.phoenixchamber.com/nominate. Businesses may also nominate themselves to gain greater visibility within the community.
The awards will recognize small, mid-sized, and large private companies, publicly held companies, and nonprofit organizations classified as 501(c)3 that have contributed significantly to Arizona. Nominated companies are expected to demonstrate excellence based on three main criteria.
Three finalists will be selected in each category. All nominees and finalists will be acknowledged during an event hosted by the Greater Phoenix Chamber on June 9, 2026. At this event, one company from each category will receive the title of Business of the Year.
