???Exciting News!????The Special Event Company is teaming up with Wake Technical Community College to mentor the next generation of event planners! We’re honored to collaborate on their new?Special Events Planning and Production Certificate—a hybrid course designed to equip students with the skills to create unforgettable events. To say we’re proud of our team for contributing to the development of this program is an understatement. Our team members are passionate about what they do, and because of this passion, they are eager to share their knowledge and experience with those curious about the event industry.

For this #WakeTech course, our team, along with top regional industry pros, will guide students through hands-on projects, case studies, and guest lectures, covering everything from designing event concepts and budgeting to evaluating event success.

???IGNITE 2025: A Night to Remember! Our team had the honor of strategizing, designing and producing?Wake Technical Community College's eighth-annual IGNITE event, hosted by the Wake Tech Foundation at the Raleigh Convention Center. With?800+ business and community leaders?in attendance, we set the stage for an experience that wasn’t just engaging—it was?transformative. Through?strategic story-led on-screen and on-stage content?coupled with an elevated event design, we brought to life the powerful ways?a Wake Tech education serves as a compass, helping students explore new opportunities and navigate life-changing journeys. The impact was?not just seen but felt by every person in that room (...mission accomplished!). We were incredibly proud to partner on such an inspiring and important event.?Check out the full story here????https://lnkd.in/echYHwGJ Scott Ralls, Matt Smith, Traci Rowe, Lindsay Wrege, 321 Coffee, Cheval Batts #WakeTech #WakeTechIGNITE #EventExcellence #StorytellingThatInspires #VideoProduction #EventProfs
Thank you to all of our sponsors, guests, speakers and volunteers that made Wake Tech IGNITE 2025 a huge success! Here are a few highlights: Shana Cox, Wake Tech Graduate – “Being at Wake Tech really helped me to find my strength and to know that I feel like there's a bunch of things that I don't know and that's OK. But I can figure them out. I’ve learned that life isn't about staying on one track. Sometimes it's about being brave enough to switch lanes. Being willing to start over, to learn, to grow – that's where the real magic happens.” Cheval Batts, current Wake Tech Student and Ambassador – “From being in a wheelchair for 10 years, I've learned that disability doesn't define me. Living independently, proving to my family and myself that I can take care of myself, and live a really full life – that's been my real journey. For me, adversity is the spice of life. Overcoming obstacles, proving that I could do more – that's what drives me.” Ethan Hatch, current Wake Tech Student and Siemens apprentice – “Wake Tech has been more than just a school for me. The relationships I've built with my teachers, the opportunities I've found – it's about preparing for a real career. And it’s given me a real step up on people just launching straight into the world of work. Everything I'm doing is about becoming the best version of myself.” Dusti Patterson, Wake Tech Graduate and Scott Scholar – “I know people often say that ‘you get what you pay for’, but I learned that doesn’t really fit here. While WTCC costs just $3,000 a year and other schools are charging $25k and up, you don’t get less here. You get a quality experience, from small class sizes, small student to teacher ratios, access to highly educated teachers with a passion for teaching, and an environment that helps you keeps thriving through every new opportunity.” BSA UBS Truist Amgen UNC Health First Horizon Bank TranSystems Davis Kane Architects, P.A.

This ???? A reminder that sometimes the success of an event does not come down to the usual metrics we measure them by - number of attendees, sales or donations generated, or overall ROI. Though they are important, a room of 800 of the Greater Raleigh business community giving a standing ovation to Lindsay Wrege and the baristas of 321 Coffee was the ultimate success. Proud to be part of the team at The Special Event Company to produce this event and part of the Raleigh community who celebrates the impact of meaningful work.
Yesterday at Wake Tech's Ignite event, our team got a STANDING OVATION. A ??STANDING ?? OVATION ?? It’s one thing to know that we have a community full of champions who believe in what we do at 321 Coffee. But it’s another thing to see a HUGE room full of 800 people celebrating our people. Raleigh business community, THANK YOU! I'm always proud to speak and share the story of 321 and our collective impact. It brought me another level of pride to welcome some of our baristas, who are former Wake Tech students, onto stage and seeing them celebrated for their achievements. This is a community that shows UP! #WakeTech #InclusiveEmployment #MeaningfulWork #WorkplaceInclusion?Wake Technical Community College

What a fantastic experience. My very first keynote in North America.
