Aprio Joins Elite List of Atlanta’s Fastest-Growing Companies; Named to Atlanta Business Chronicle’s 2025 Pacesetter Awards  

ATLANTA – Sept. 29, 2025 – Aprio, the 24^th largest business advisory and accounting firm in the U.S., has been named a 2025 Pacesetter Award honoree by the Atlanta Business Chronicle. Now in its 30th year, the Pacesetter Awards celebrate Atlanta’s fastest-growing privately held companies that fuel the region’s economic success. Aprio’s recognition signals the firm’s continued momentum as one of the profession’s fastest-growing firms, with investments in acquisitions, technology, and talent, delivering holistic solutions to clients across markets and strengthening its position as a trusted business advisor for clients navigating transformation and growth. 

Over the past 18 months, the firm has entered three new markets—Baltimore, Chicago, and Scottsdale —and announced new offices in Topeka and Overland Park, effective November 1, 2025. Aprio added teams to eight existing markets, including Denver, the Metro D.C. area, New Jersey, Austin, Atlanta, Boston, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. A major milestone was the launch of Aprio Legal, following the acquisition of Radix Law, an alternative business structure (ABS) entity, enabling Aprio to deliver a truly holistic client experience across accounting, tax, advisory, and legal services. Aprio’s commitment to innovation is underscored by $300 million, five-year investment in AI, which is accelerating the adoption of advanced technologies across the firm’s teams. These initiatives reflect Aprio’s focus on scaling talent, services, and digital capabilities to meet evolving client needs.  

“Earning recognition among Atlanta’s fastest-growing companies is a reflection of the incredible drive of our team and the trust our clients place in us,” said Richard Kopelman, CEO of Aprio. “Aprio is leading the way in redefining what it means to be a professional services firm, and we’re excited about the opportunities ahead as we continue to build the firm of the future.” 

The 30th annual Pacesetter Awards, presented by PNC, was celebrated by the Atlanta Business Chronicle on Thursday, September 11.
