PHX FWD’s “The List” Now Tracks 700 Arizona Software Companies

Arizona’s software ecosystem continues to show just how far it has come.

PHX FWD recently shared a preview of the newest edition of The List, its growing database of software companies building across Arizona. The latest count has reached an impressive milestone: 700 companies statewide.

That number helps illustrate the depth of Arizona’s technology ecosystem. Across the state, founders are launching companies, raising capital, hiring talent, scaling products, and building businesses capable of competing nationally.

The List also provides a valuable resource for understanding just how much software activity is happening across Arizona—and PHX FWD believes there are still many companies that have yet to be added.

The initiative is supported by Keyser Commercial Real Estate and is part of PHX FWD’s broader effort to connect and strengthen Arizona’s software community.

The milestone also comes as PHX FWD prepares for CapCon, its upcoming gathering designed to bring founders, investors, operators, and ecosystem partners together.

700 software companies—and counting. Arizona’s technology ecosystem isn’t waiting to emerge. It’s already being built.
