Big Moves in Music City: Meet the 2024 Dealmakers

If you’re in Nashville and looking to get a grasp on the pulse of the local economy, you might want to get familiar with what’s brewing in the world of business. Each year, our city recognizes the movers and shakers shaping Nashville’s future, and 2024 is no exception. Welcome to our annual Power 100 list—your go-to resource for who is steering the ship here in Music City!

Celebrating Those Who Make Deals Happen

This year, we’re introducing an exciting new segment focused on the Dealmakers. These are the folks behind those hefty contracts, major projects, and strategic alliances that make a real difference in our economy. Think of them as the heart of Nashville’s economic engine, bringing ideas to life and transforming the skyline, one deal at a time.

To put this list together, we took a deep dive into who’s really influencing the landscape here. Questions like “Who should I know to get things done in Nashville?” and “Who has the power to really make a difference?” guided our research. The power of these Dealmakers extends well beyond their office walls; they are crucial in guiding the city’s economic trajectory.

The Exciting New Format of Power 100

This year, we’ve introduced a fresh approach to our profiles. For our first-timers on the list, you’ll find more in-depth write-ups that dive into their contributions and impacts. It’s important to note that we categorize our list differently this year, so in addition to Dealmakers, you’ll also meet Connectors, Disruptors, Heavy Hitters, Industry Giants, and Trendsetters over the coming weeks.
