Apple CEO Tim Cook attended the Human Rights Campaign's national dinner on Saturday, where he received the LGBT advocacy organization's Visibility Award.
The award is given to high-profile LGBT individuals whom the group believes make for positive role models.
"Through his example and Apple's commitment to equality, LGBT young people in particular can look to Tim Cook's incredible career and know that there is nothing holding them back," HRC President Chad Griffin said by way of introduction.
Cook publicly came out as gay it in late 2014, and has repeatedly taken actions inside and outside of Apple to advance the cause of LGBT people worldwide.
