TechGig announces ‘she builds the future 2026’: A high-impact leadership initiative redefining the technology landscape

NEW DELHI: March 5, 2026 – TechGig, India’s largest community of over 5.6 million developers and tech enthusiasts, today announced its flagship International Women’s Day initiative: “She Builds the Future: Power, Presence & Progress.” Scheduled for 7–8 March 2026, this two-day virtual leadership summit moves beyond symbolic celebration to address the critical need for robust leadership pipelines in a rapidly evolving global economy.

As AI, automation, and hybrid work models redefine the corporate world, TechGig’s initiative focuses on the practical mechanics of leadership. The event brings together a powerhouse lineup of women leaders from global giants including Fiserv, Wipro, Siemens, Wells Fargo, and OpenText to discuss scaling high-performance teams and driving measurable business outcomes.

"Leadership today is no longer defined solely by hierarchy; it is characterized by influence, visibility, and measurable progress,"Shalini Tewari, Head of TechGig & Chief Operating Officer - CoolBoots Media. “‘She Builds the Future’ is conceptualized to spotlight the next generation of leaders who are navigating shorter product cycles and distributed teams with vision and resilience.”

A two-day roadmap (7–8 March)

The initiative, hosted via the Airmeet platform, features three core sessions designed for engineering leads, HR professionals, and aspiring executives:

• Opening Panel (7th March, 12:00 PM IST): Focuses on progress and gaps in engineering, data, and business excellence with leaders from Fiserv, Nucleus Software, Wipro, Siemens, and GlobalLogic.

The session, titled “Building AI-Ready, Future-Proof Careers: Why Women Must Lead the AI Shift,” will dive deep into how women can position themselves at the forefront of the technological transition to AI.
