We are proud to return in March 2026 as Platinum Sponsor of Night of Ambition for the third consecutive year. Hosted by our client PXC, this annual gala event brings together organisations from the telecoms, technology and charity sectors, raising vital funds for Ambitious about Autism to directly support better outcomes for autistic children and young people across the UK.
As an unconditionally inclusive company, our continued sponsorship reflects CGI’s long-term commitment to building inclusive communities where everyone has an opportunity to thrive. We are proud to stand alongside partners who are delivering meaningful outcomes for autistic young people and their families.
At CGI, we believe technology should be shaped by real needs and lived experience, and that belief guides how we work with our clients, partners and the communities we serve. We embed social value into technology programmes, while learning from organisations with specialist expertise.
Over the last two years, Night of Ambition has raised more than £700,000 to support Ambitious about Autism’s specialist education, employability and youth participation programmes, directly impacting the lives of those who need it most. This year’s event will raise vital funds for the Supported Internships programme, which provides autistic young people with 12-month work placements that help them gain employment and independence skills through job coaching and specialist support.
“We are delighted to work alongside PXC and Ambitious about Autism again this year. We believe inclusion is built through long-term partnerships, listening carefully, and supporting organisations with deep specialist expertise that understand the needs of autistic young people. The insights we gain through partnerships like this help us think differently about how technology can support inclusive outcomes”
- Tara McGeehan, President, CGI UK & Australia
“We are incredibly grateful to CGI for their unwavering support as Platinum Sponsors of Night of Ambition for the third consecutive year.

- James Smith, CEO, PXC
“We are honoured to have CGI as the Platinum Sponsor of Night of Ambition for the third year in a row and are incredibly grateful for their continued support in raising vital funds that enable autistic children and young people to realise their ambitions. Partnerships like this are essential for increasing our impact, and we thank CGI for helping to shape our thinking about the ways in which technology can break down barriers and increase opportunities for autistic children, young people and their families.”
– Yolanta Lasota, CEO, Ambitious about Autism
Over the past year, we have deepened our relationship with Ambitious about Autism, visiting the charity’s Treehouse School in London in May 2025. The visit offered valuable insight into specialist education and the highly individual approaches used to support autistic pupils.
Discussions with educators highlighted the importance of carefully designed environments, routines and the thoughtful use of technology. These conversations continue to inform our thinking about responsible and ethical use of assistive technology in education.
Through ongoing discussions with Ambitious about Autism, we’re exploring how technology could support staff and students in a practical and inclusive way, guided by educators and the needs of young people.
Together with PXC, Ambitious about Autism and the wider Night of Ambition community, CGI is helping to create a more inclusive society. One where autistic children and young people are supported to realise their ambitions and achieve their potential.
