About PCA:

With more than 300 Members and growing, PCA is the influential 501(c)(3) non-profit community development organization that has tremendous impact on Greater Downtown Phoenix through the united vision and commitment of our Members.

Today, PCA continues to find the right opportunities for business leaders to collaborate with government – city, county, state, and local federal agencies – and with other stakeholders including educational, cultural, community groups, research institutions, and emerging industries to build the 21st century city we want. PCA continues to work closely with City of Phoenix elected officials and staff and serves as an effective platform for public/private dialogue on community and economic development issues.  

As the membership affiliate of Downtown Phoenix Inc. (DPI), PCA immediately connects Members with all that Downtown Phoenix has to offer. PCA Members have greater access to information and opportunities that directly and positively affect their businesses, bottom lines, and impact in the community.
