ONOMIC E VALLEY The Phoenix Convention Center is a department of the City of Phoenix that operates with remarkable effectiveness. With its magnetic appeal as a tourist destination, the Center has demonstrably driven significant economic returns for both the city and the state. For example, in 2024, the 62 conventions hosted by the Center generated a staggering $488 million, attracting nearly 315,000 attendees! As high as those numbers are, they aren’t particularly out of the ordinary, as the Center’s substantial economic impact is something both the city and state have come to expect year after year. 2 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 12, ISSUE 06
