Standing among Scottsdale’s leading businesses, Aker Ink was recognized as a finalist in the 39th annual Scottsdale Area Chamber of Commerce Sterling Awards. Finalists are celebrated for pushing the boundaries of innovation, upholding a standard of excellence and giving back to the community in meaningful ways.

“For us, this recognition is about more than business,” said Aker Ink CEO Andrea Aker. “It’s about contributing to the fabric of Scottsdale through our work and values. Being named among this year’s finalists reinforces our commitment to delivering transformative results for our clients and contributing to the strength of our community.”

One of the most trusted marks of distinction in the Valley’s business community comes with a rigorous judging process — in-depth applications, on-site interviews and formal presentations. Finalists now open their doors to judges for a firsthand look at operations, culture and leadership ahead of November’s award ceremony.
