Regional commitment to sports, community, and youth development
When the 49th International Ötigheim Autumn Run kicks off on September 26, 2026, the region will once again be all about movement, community, and athletic ambition. As a regionally rooted company, EnergieTechnik Becker GmbH is delighted to once again support this traditional event as a partner and sponsor.
For many years, EnergieTechnik Becker has been involved in projects, associations, and events that bring people together and strengthen social life in our region. The International Ötigheim Autumn Run is an excellent example of this.
An event with tradition
For decades, the Ötigheim Autumn Run has been one of the most well-known running events in Central Baden. Year after year, hundreds of runners come to Ötigheim to master athletic challenges together and be part of a special community.
After the successful increase in participants last year, the organizers of TG Ötigheim are again expecting numerous participants from across the region in 2026.
The program includes:
- 400-meter Bambini run
- Student runs over 600 and 800 meters
- 5-kilometer run
- 10-kilometer run
Particularly noteworthy: In 2026, no entry fees will be charged for any of the competitions. This extraordinary commitment is once again made possible by Reinhard Hofmann, who covers the participation fees of all runners and also finances numerous material prizes.
Youth development begins in sports
As a company that places great value on education, development, and youth development, EnergieTechnik Becker is particularly pleased about the high participation of young athletes.
The Bambini and student runs have been highlights of the autumn run for many years. They not only promote the joy of movement but also convey important values such as fairness, discipline, team spirit, and perseverance.
Precisely these qualities also play an important role in professional life.
Values that connect
Sports and business have more in common than many might initially think.
Commitment, endurance, teamwork, and a sense of responsibility are not only crucial on the running track but also characterize the daily work at EnergieTechnik Becker.
"Sports convey values such as fairness, commitment, team spirit, and endurance. These values are not only important on the running track but also in daily interaction and professional life. That's why we support events that promote and make these values visible."
With this understanding, EnergieTechnik Becker has been committed to regional associations, events, and social projects for many years.
Regionally rooted – assuming responsibility
As a company based in the region, EnergieTechnik Becker sees social engagement not as an obligation but as a matter of course.
Supporting regional events helps to promote community, strengthen associations, and make voluntary engagement visible.
Events like the International Ötigheim Autumn Run impressively demonstrate what is possible when associations, volunteers, sponsors, and companies work together towards a common goal.
Thanks to all helpers
An event of this magnitude would not be possible without the many volunteer helpers, the organizers of TG Ötigheim, and the supporting companies.
Their commitment ensures that the Ötigheim Autumn Run has lost none of its appeal even after almost five decades and continues to bring together people of all generations.
EnergieTechnik Becker thanks all involved for their efforts and looks forward to accompanying the 49th edition of this special event as a partner.

Together for a strong region
The International Ötigheim Autumn Run stands for much more than athletic competition. It shows how community, volunteering, and regional support can work together to create something sustainable.
Precisely for this reason, EnergieTechnik Becker supports this event with full conviction – today and in the future.
