Brad Vynalek Selected for AZ Big Media’s 2026 “50 Most Powerful Business Leaders in Arizona”

Brad Vynalek, the Phoenix-based president of Quarles & Brady LLP, has been named among the “50 Most Powerful Business Leaders in Arizona” by AZ Big Media.

The list recognizes people who “are focused on investments that can create lasting prosperity” in the state, selected by the AZ Big Media editorial board, with input from Arizona business leaders across a wide variety of industries.

An excerpt from the profile of Vynalek:

Defining success: “Past perspectives of success meant running fast to a finish line of accomplishment toward a specific goal. Today, I define success differently. It’s about durable growth, building platforms that enable teams to unite and achieve together, and ensuring that family and friends are a constant part of that journey.”

Lasting legacy: “Arizona is a bold state. We are defined by innovation and resilience. We are a place of opportunity. My hope is to make sure that educational opportunity becomes even more central to our future; that business leaders lean into helping shape policy; and that Arizona continues to be a place our families can be proud of for years to come.”
