ZMM Architects and Engineers (ZMM) is proud to announce it has been named to the 2025 Hot Firm List by Zweig Group, ranking #26 among the 100 fastest-growing architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) firms in the United States and Canada.

“Being named to this prestigious list speaks to the dedication and hard work of the ZMM team,” shared Adam Krason, CEO, Principal and Architect. “The growth that we have seen throughout the history of our firm is a testament to the opportunities provided by our clients and our team’s commitment to design excellence, collaboration, and community support.”

Zweig’s “Hot Firm” list recognizes firms that have outperformed the economy and their peers through a combination of strategic growth, operational excellence, and a commitment to innovation. Rankings are based on a score that includes revenue growth over a three-year period.

ZMM joins an elite group of firms setting the pace for the future of the built environment. The winning firms showcase exceptional performance and market leadership. Winners will be formally recognized during the 2025 ElevateAEC Conference and Awards Gala in San Antonio, Texas this September.

“The 2025 Hot Firms are a reflection of the strength and resilience of the AEC industry,” said Chad Clinehens, president and CEO of Zweig Group. “These companies have achieved remarkable growth while navigating market shifts, talent shortages, and increased competition. Their success highlights the value of strategic leadership, strong culture, and the ability to adapt and innovate.”

At ZMM, it’s about more than architecture, it’s about building your legacy.
