ATLANTA (January 30, 2024) —Atlanta magazine released its sixth annual special publication, The Atlanta 500, recognizing the 500 most influential business and civic leaders in Atlanta. The list also includes dozens of leaders whom the magazine has deemed as “Legends.” The Atlanta 500 recognizes the most influential Atlantans— including not only corporate CEOs, but also leading entrepreneurs, educators, researchers, artists, and those leading nonprofits and shaping public policy. The print publication is for sale on newsstands throughout Atlanta, and the online listings is available, at atlantamagazine.com/atlanta-500.
“CEOs of our city’s largest corporations or firms’ top producers were likely candidates, but we also looked to see if those achievers were plugged into the city—serving on nonprofit boards, spearheading programs for their communities, and creating opportunities for their employees,” said Scott Freeman, Editor in Chief of Atlanta magazine. “What makes our list unique is that it is not just about business, but also about creatives, teachers, health care providers, essential workers, and visionaries, all of the people who help make Atlanta the city we love.”
The Atlanta 500 is comprised of eight categories: Business; Professionals; Real Estate & Design; Government & Infrastructure; Arts, Sports & Entertainment; Education & Healthcare; Restaurants & Hospitality; and Religion, Nonprofits & Advocacy. Atlanta magazine’s editors spent months consulting experts across different sectors while also taking into consideration nominations from the public.
“One of our former longtime editors used to say Atlanta magazine has the ability to tell you something you’ve never known about people you know, while introducing you to people you may never have heard of but should know—it’s in this spirit that we introduce our readers to our sixth annual The Atlanta 500,” said Sean McGinnis, President and Publisher of Atlanta magazine.
