AZ Inno, the state's main news source for information on the startup community, is proud to unveil the list of finalists for the inaugural 2022 Inno Fire awards, honoring some of the fastest-growing, innovative and impactful startup companies in Arizona. The Inno on Fire awards are AZ Inno’s premier recognition program, honoring the companies and people setting the local innovation economy ablaze.

After combing through the nominations for the 2022 Inno Fire awards, we have narrowed the field to a group of finalists in four award categories. Nominees submitted key information about milestones achieved in the past 12 months, funding rounds, as well as market share data, employee growth and future expansion plans, among other data points that were considered in picking the finalists.

Watch for coverage of the awards online on the AZ Inno website and in print in the Phoenix Business Journal on Friday, July 1.

Besides the four category finalists being considered, a highlight of the event will be the presentation of the inaugural AZ Inno Blazer Award to an Arizona entrepreneur and startup founder who not only achieved a fast-track growth trajectory for their own business, but is a key pillar of the state's startup fraternity who makes a point of giving back to the community.

The 2022 Blazer Award winner is Gregg Scoresby, who founded Chandler-based education technology company CampusLogic, an education technology almost 11 years ago, overseeing its growth into one of the nation's premier edtech company, focusing on simplifying financing options for college students.
