L&T Technology Services Limited (LTTS), a global leader in AI, digital, and engineering services, has opened nominations for the fourth annual Digital Engineering Awards, organized in partnership with Information Services Group (ISG), a leading AI-focused technology research and advisory firm, and CNBC-TV18, India’s leading business news network.
Widely recognized as one of the most prestigious global honors in the field of digital engineering, the Awards celebrate breakthrough innovation at the intersection of AI, technology, and sustainability. Winners of the 2026 edition will be announced on March 12, 2026, at a gala event in Boston, Massachusetts, with finalists also receiving exclusive access to the MIT Media Lab for a first-hand look at emerging technologies.
This year, reflecting the rising impact of AI, a new category—Physical AI Impact of the Year—has been added under the Engineering the Change segment. It joins two other AI-focused honors: AI Impact of the Year and AI Trailblazer of the Year. These additions underscore the Awards’ commitment to spotlighting leadership in the fast-growing AI ecosystem.
The program celebrates excellence through 12 award categories, organized under two main segments. The Engineering the Change segment highlights team achievements, recognizing efforts in areas such as Digital Transformation of the Year, Engineering Product of the Year, Sustainability Initiative, Value Realization, and the newly introduced Physical AI Impact of the Year.
The Engineer at Heart segment focuses on individual contributions, honoring professionals with titles like Distinguished Digital Engineering Leader, Innovator of the Year, Woman Engineer of the Year, and AI Trailblazer of the Year—spotlighting those driving innovation and shaping the future of engineering.
Over the past three years, the Awards have celebrated visionaries from companies including Airbus, GE Healthcare, Intel, Qualcomm, BMW, Philips, AT&T, Chevron, Eaton, and T-Mobile. A global jury of industry experts and ISG representatives will evaluate this year’s submissions.
The Digital Engineering Awards serve as a global platform to acknowledge individuals and organizations who are redefining industries, driving sustainable growth, and shaping the future through advanced engineering solutions.
