As we celebrate International Women's Day 2026, the WIRe Delhi NCR Chapter invites you to an evening of powerful conversations, meaningful connections, and collective inspiration.
This year, we embrace the theme GiveToGain — a reminder that when we invest in others, we all grow stronger together. Our event, "Lift as You Rise," brings this to life by challenging us to go beyond mentorship and step into the role of a sponsor — someone who actively advocates, opens doors, and uses their influence to elevate the women around them.
Whether you are a seasoned leader, an emerging professional, or somewhere in between, this is your space to connect, reflect, and recommit to lifting others as you rise.
Thank you to our event sponsors, Inqognito Insights and ResInnov Solutions, and media partner The Collaborative Canvas for making this event possible!
