WHITBY, ON -- 360insights, the leading channel engagement and business optimization company, took home multiple awards at this year’s Incentive Marketing Association (IMA) 2025 Excellence Awards during the IMA Summit Awards ceremony at the Austin Marriot Downtown on July 15th, 2025.

360insight received the following award wins and accolades:

Winner: Excellence in Social Responsibility

The Sensory Garden Initiative, led by 360insights in partnership with the Friends of the Care Project (FOTCP), is a powerful example of how collaboration can create lasting, meaningful change. Working alongside FOTCP, 360insights brought together guests from Johnstone Supply and local volunteers to transform the outdoor space at the Friends Development Centre (FDC) in Antigua into a vibrant sensory garden for children and young adults with disabilities. Volunteers constructed a sensory sandbox, a wheelchair-accessible water wall, a music wall made from recycled materials, and an herb garden designed for exploration and interaction. This transformed an outdoor space into a vibrant, inclusive, and therapeutic environment while uniting a diverse group of individuals with a shared purpose. This left an indelible positive legacy for the Antigua community, reflecting 360insights’ commitment to inclusivity, creativity, and community empowerment.

Winner: Inspirational Place to Work

The Inspirational Place to Work Award spotlights organizations that put people first, offer an engaging and inspiring place to work, value the role of employees, and embrace an open and inclusive culture supported by a future-thinking leadership team. Efforts related to corporate responsibility, sustainability, and the impact their businesses have on the environment are also considered.

360insights focuses on creating a positive work environment, growth and development, and recognition and appreciation based on core commitment to “make a difference in the lives of our people, our clients and our global communities.” This commitment is embedded in work culture through many different initiatives, such as prioritizing a healthy work–life balance, employee-led Employee Resource Groups, Mental Health First Aid network, promoting volunteerism, and mentorship programs.

Committed to driving positive change both within business and in global communities, 360insights has launched impactful initiatives such as “Trade Not Aid” and “Profit with a Heart”, which provide employment opportunities and medical support to communities in Haiti.

As part of sustainability efforts, 360insights has significantly increased the use of digital rewards in client programs to reduce reliance on physical merchandise and lower the carbon footprint associated with production and shipping. Clients are empowered to include charitable donations in their reward catalogs, aligning incentives with social good.

The commitment extends to environmental stewardship through annual Earth Day trash collection events across Canada, the U.S., and the U.K., and by planting a tree for every employee in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Haiti, and Guatemala. Initiatives like Employee Appreciation Day further reinforce the value of global responsibility.
