The Technology Service Providers of Kenya (TESPOK) successfully hosted the TESPOK Autism Marathon 2026, bringing together members of the ICT industry, corporate partners, government representatives, families, caregivers, and the wider community in support of autism awareness and inclusion.
Held at Tatu City, the marathon once again demonstrated TESPOK’s commitment to using the power of technology and collaboration to create meaningful social impact. Under the theme “Be a Hero – Accept, Understand and Love,” the event united participants from all walks of life to champion understanding, acceptance, and support for individuals on the autism spectrum.
The day featured races for different age groups and fitness levels, family activities, and awareness campaigns aimed at promoting greater understanding of autism while encouraging inclusive communities and workplaces.
Promoting Inclusion Through Collective Action
The marathon reinforced several key priorities:
- Raising awareness and promoting greater understanding of autism across communities and workplaces.
- Encouraging collaboration between the ICT industry, government, development partners, and civil society to advance inclusion.
- Demonstrating how the technology sector can create positive social impact through meaningful corporate social responsibility initiatives.
TESPOK extends its sincere appreciation to all sponsors, partners, volunteers, participants, and supporters whose contributions made the event a success. Together, we continue to demonstrate that digital transformation goes hand in hand with building a more inclusive and compassionate society.
