What are other ways to express "something becomes more and more important"?

Question

For example, if I would like to use the word "importance", how can I make the sentence?

What comes to mind is "to gain in importance."

gain: to gradually get (something) or more of (something) as time passes.

The most obvious phrasing that comes to mind is to say that it is of increasing importance.
