Help Tell the Story of Arizona’s Rise
Arizona is experiencing one of the most exciting periods of growth in the country. Across technology, startups, real estate, healthcare, and innovation, the state is evolving into a powerful center of opportunity.
At Arizona Ascent, our mission is simple:
Tell the stories of the people building Arizona’s future.
To expand that mission, we are launching the Arizona Ascent Brand Ambassador Program—a network of connectors, innovators, and community leaders who believe in amplifying the voices shaping Arizona’s next chapter.
For this first launch, we are selecting a limited group of Founding Brand Ambassadors who will help shape the program from the beginning.
What Is a Founding Brand Ambassador?
Founding ambassadors are early members of a community helping expand the reach and impact of Arizona Ascent across the state.
You won’t just represent the brand—you’ll help build the network that powers it.
Ambassadors play a role in connecting Arizona’s business, startup, and innovation communities with the stories and platforms that elevate them.
What Ambassadors Do
Arizona Ascent ambassadors help strengthen connections within Arizona’s business and innovation ecosystem.
Ambassadors may:
• Represent Arizona Ascent at events and community gatherings
• Connect founders, investors, and leaders with our media platform
• Share stories from Arizona’s innovation and business ecosystem
• Support Arizona Ascent events and community initiatives
• Introduce companies and leaders with stories worth telling
Our ambassadors are connectors, storytellers, and community builders.
Who Should Apply
We’re looking for people who are already active in Arizona’s professional and entrepreneurial communities. This may include:
- Entrepreneurs and founders
- Startup ecosystem supporters
- Business professionals and operators
- Community builders and network leaders
- Students and emerging leaders in business or technology
- Marketing, media, or communications professionals
The most important trait:
You care about Arizona’s future and want to help amplify it.
