Major Milestone Nine - Reaching 100 Employees

Inzpire reached the milestone of 100 employees on 15 Sep 2016. From 3 friends around a dinner table, to 100 people, in just over 11 years.

On 15 Sep 2006, we posted a blog where employees shared some of their favourite memories from their time of employment with Inzpire – the below was our favourite!

Ian Robinson, now our Head of Information Technology, said: “I remember going to the Inzpire Christmas party just a few months after I started – the company was about 50 people strong. After the meal a beeline was made for a local bar and I headed over with a colleague. She had told me in the past that the next time I went to this particular bar, I should try the ‘Pornstar Martini Cocktail’. So when we got there I ordered us a both a ‘Pornstar Martini’ – it was, as promised, very good! While I was drinking it, Mark Boyes walked in asked us what on earth we were drinking so we explained and he headed to the bar whilst Marie and I carried on chatting and the next thing I knew, the bar had filled with Inzpire staff and pretty much every single one of them had a ‘Pornstar Martini’ in their hand (which quite a few were regarding with slightly sceptical looks on their face!). I never actually asked him but I guess Mark must have gone to the bar and just put in a bulk order for everyone. His gesture and the sight of everyone drinking the same cocktail made quite an impression!”

And now, less than 4 years later, we are a company of 193 people – soon to hit 200!
