Aris Alexander is a Researcher at Fortune in New York, where he contributes to the data collection and research behind the annual Fortune 500, Europe 500, and Global 500 lists. The lists are a yearly snapshot of the business world, a tradition Fortune has kept since 1955.
He holds a bachelor’s degree in Economic Theory and Mathematics from New York University, where he also read English Literature. The 500 research process has yet to be overcome by AI, and he is curious to see how long that lasts. Aris is also a part-time PhD student in Applied Math at Stony Brook University, a curious endeavor now that he has access to Claude. He enjoys films, and in an era of endless AI-generated content, the older ones are hitting harder. He originally hails from Brookhaven, New York.
