iLuminate is an entertainment technology company that combines state-of- the-art technology with electrifying entertainers who perform in the dark to create the ultimate performing arts experience. Founded by dancer and software engineer Miral Kotb, iLuminate enables performers, choreographers and artistic directors to produce explosive performances with customized wireless lighting programs. The results are extraordinary lighting effects choreographed with phenomenal dance moves that take viewers on an exhilarating ride.

Since launching in 2009, iLuminate's patented technology has been used in numerous performances by Grammy-winning superstars such as Chris Brown, Christina Aguilera, The Black Eyed Peas, and David Guetta, among others. It has also been featured on hit primetime television shows including "America's Got Talent" (in which the dance troupe took third place), "Dancing with the Stars" and "X Factor," awards shows like the "American Music Awards," "MTV's Video Music Awards," "BET Awards," "The Nickelodeon Awards," "Billboard" and "Latin Billboard Awards," and daytime favorites "The Ellen Degeneres Show," "The Wendy Williams Show," and "Good Morning America" and "The Queen Latifah Show."

Having catapulted into an international sensation, iLuminate has performed across the globe for various events, including headlining at the Cairo Opera House in Egypt; performing with Labrinth for Sony's Xperia smart phone launch in London; dancing at automotive shows in Canada and South Africa; participating in Capezio's prestigious 125th Anniversary Celebration at New York's City Center; performing at the Kids Inaugural Concert for Military Families as part of inauguration weekend in Washington D.C, among several others.

2012 saw the company open the production arm of their brand. Their first feature show was performed at Six Flags theme parks across the country where over 4,000 people a day were part of sold-out crowds to witness this all new event. iLuminate also installed two unique shows on the esteemed Crystal Cruises ships, which continue to perform weekly at sea. The iLuminate Off-Broadway show played to sold-out audiences at the Duke on 42nd Street in 2012 then re-opened for a two year run at New World Stages.

iLuminate's most recent focus is on education. They have had educational tours in Central Asia and New Zealand and recently did a week-long workshop at Cortland Repertory Theatre in which high school dancers performed in the dark in lighting suits their fellow student technicians created and programmed.
