Around the holidays, we at INSPIRE love to find ways to give back and enocurage our community. At our Dallas offices, we hosted a toy drive where we were able to donate over 100 toys to the TR Hoover Center, benefitting children between the ages of 5 and 15. Thank you to everyone who donated and enabled us to spread a bit of holiday cheer this season! #INSPIREsolutions #HolidayGiving

INSPIRE was honored to produce the 43rd annual Black Tie Dinner welcoming over 3,500 attendees. Black Tie Dinner is the the nation’s largest LGBTQ+ fundraising dinner, distributing more than $30 million since 1982. This marks our fourth year partnering with this extraordinary organization, and we are looking forward to working together for many more! This year’s theme, "Simulation," came to life with the debut of Prism, an AI-generated virtual host we developed to enhance the guest experience. Prism welcomed attendees, shared event updates, and added a futuristic touch to an evening dedicated to supporting vital causes. #INSPIREsolutions #BlackTieDinner #EventProduction #VirtualHost #AIinEvents
