We are delighted that CGI will once again be the Headline Sponsor of Night of Ambition, the annual fundraising gala held by PlatformX Communications (PXC) that supports the life-changing work of their charity partner Ambitious about Autism. Following the success of last year’s event, which raised £366,000, we are honoured to continue our partnership with this incredible charity and help create meaningful outcomes for autistic children and young people across the UK.
This year’s gala will be held at the iconic Raffles London at the OWO on Thursday 27 March, welcoming over 400 guests from across the UK’s business and charity communities. Together, we aim to raise vital funds to support Ambitious about Autism in their mission to provide education, employment opportunities, and better futures for autistic young people. The theme of Assistive Technology will be at the heart of this year’s event, building on last year’s focus on how innovative solutions such as communication devices, learning aids, and accessibility tools, can empower autistic individuals to overcome barriers and access opportunities at school, in the workplace, and beyond.
CGI’s commitment to delivering positive outcomes extends beyond our business operations to the communities we serve. As an unconditionally inclusive company, supporting the Night of Ambition reflects our commitment to creating a more inclusive society, where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
“CGI is honoured to return as the Headline Sponsor of Night of Ambition for the second year running. The focus on Assistive Technology is particularly meaningful for us as we work to leverage innovation to drive positive outcomes in the communities we serve. We are proud to stand alongside Ambitious about Autism as they continue their vital work helping autistic children and young people to achieve their potential” – Tara McGeehan, President CGI UK & Australia
The 2025 Night of Ambition promises an unforgettable evening of entertainment, networking, and philanthropy. Funds raised on the night will go towards critical programmes and services, including specialist education, youth participation projects, and employability initiatives that help autistic individuals build brighter futures.
“We are thrilled to work with CGI again as we bring the Night of Ambition to life for another year. With this year’s focus on Assistive Technology, we have the opportunity to highlight how innovation can open doors and help neurodivergent people and their families to thrive.” – Phil Haslam, Chief Operating and Technology Officer, PXC
Ambitious about Autism continues to be a leading voice in raising awareness, breaking down barriers, and improving opportunities for autistic young people across the UK. Their work is transformative, and the funds raised at this year’s gala will directly impact the lives of those who need it most.
“We are hugely grateful that CGI join us again as headline sponsor of Night of Ambition, our biggest fundraising event of the year. Their continued support of our work demonstrates their commitment to standing with autistic children and young people and helping us to deliver positive outcomes” – Jolanta Lasota, CEO Ambitious about Autism
