Ice Cream, Anybody?
Join us at the 2023 Alaska Business Top 49ers Luncheon on September 29, 2023, at the Dena’ina Civic and Convention Center in downtown Anchorage! This premier business event honors and celebrates the top local (established and headquartered in Alaska) businesses recognized for exceptional performance ranked by gross revenue.
Last year, the combined gross revenue of the businesses on the Top 49ers list was $20 billion, more than the Gross Domestic Product of many countries, such as Nicaragua or the entire West Bank and Gaza. Additionally, Top 49ers last year employed nearly 85,000 people worldwide. These are significant figures that help illustrate the importance and power of these businesses.
The Top 49ers include numerous Alaska Native corporations, which are true powerhouses and pillars of our economy. The ranks also include locally established giants in the transportation, construction, mining, and oilfield support industries.
Tables and individual tickets for the Top 49ers Luncheon and Networking Social event are now available through our website. Reserve early, as space is limited and will sell out. The 2023 Top 49ers Luncheon is sponsored by Alaska Airlines, Bering Straits Native Corporation, Marsh McLennan, MTA, NANA, NCB, Northrim Bank, PNC Bank, and RISQ Consulting.
Come and celebrate Alaska’s leading companies, enjoy lunch, network, and get your photos taken with your peers. You might even win a pair of tickets courtesy of Alaska Airlines. And did I mention the ice cream?

What happens when a city with fewer than 300 residents becomes a major freight and tourism hub, despite being accessible only by boat, plane, or a one-lane highway/railroad tunnel managed on a strict schedule?
If you’re in the City of Whittier, you get busy. The city has two separate transportation planning efforts underway, including a safety action plan under the federal Safe Streets and Roads for All initiative, which focuses on improving safety for pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, and emergency responders. The second is Whittier Moves, the city’s transportation master plan, which serves as the long-term roadmap for growth.
