The Leaders Who Changed the Equation: 2026 WIT Awards Forum
Every leader in this room has a story. A moment when the path forward was unclear. A relationship that changed the trajectory. A decision that felt like a risk and turned out to be the thing that mattered most. A realization that the system wasn't built for them, and a choice about what to do about it.
The 2026 WIT Awards winners are being recognized not just for what they have achieved. They are being recognized for what they changed, in their organizations, in their fields, and in the conditions around them. This Forum puts them on stage not to celebrate their titles but to learn from their turning points.
What does it actually take to lead in technology? What do the women who have reached the highest levels of the field know that they wish they had known sooner? What did they do when the gap between their potential and their opportunity was real and visible? And what did they change once they had the power to change it?
This WIT Forum closes the year with both a celebration and a masterclass. The winners are the content. Their recognition is the occasion. The conversation belongs to everyone in the room.
Why attend:
- Hear directly from the women being recognized as 2026 WIT Award winners on what their paths actually looked like
- Gain insight into what it takes to lead and persist in technology from leaders who have done both
- Understand what changes when women reach the highest levels of technology leadership, and what they do with that influence
- Leave with perspective that applies whether you are early in your career, mid-career, or already leading
- Be part of a community celebration that closes the year with intention and momentum
Panelists Include:
- TBA
