Join us for a night of food, wine, entertainment, and inspiration as Aspiritech presents our 2026 Gala: To Boldly Go: Limitless Possibilities. 

This year, we are thrilled to gather at the beautiful City Winery Chicago. With its world-class food, exceptional wine, and an incredible live stage, it is the perfect launchpad for an evening that celebrates breaking boundaries and exploring new frontiers.

2026 has been a universe-expanding year for Aspiritech. From scaling our groundbreaking Cybersecurity Apprenticeship, to forging new employment pathways for neurodivergent adults across the United States, we are proving that the potential of the neurodivergent mind is truly limitless. We are engineering a future where every brain belongs—and we want you on board for the journey.

Prepare to be beamed up for an unforgettable night! You'll hear the inspiring stories of our team members, enjoy stellar entertainment on City Winery's fantastic stage, and meet the people behind the mission.

Come celebrate the milestones we’ve achieved, the lives we've changed, and the bold new worlds we’re exploring next.
