PrintWeek is celebrating the power of women with the third edition of the Women to Watch Awards in 2026.

The Women to Watch Awards are for outstanding women who lead, inspire, and motivate greatness in the printing and packaging community. As part of PrintWeek’s commitment to promote the advancement of diversity, inclusion, and equality in the printing industry, these awards, in their first ever year, celebrate the achievements of India’s business leaders, change makers, trailblazers, and rising stars.

We invite the industry (that is, you) to help us recognise the women who, over the last 12 months, have shown outstanding leadership and fostered groundbreaking innovation in the printing, packaging, research, and development, as well as the future leaders of tomorrow. Women may nominate themselves or any women, team and businesses that have inspired them and made an impact in the community.

We look forward to celebrating the achievements and championing the advancement of Women in 2026.

The applications will be reviewed and analysed by a five-member Jury team, composed of industry leaders in the field of print, packaging and design. The selection process will be confidential and the Jury's decision will be final.

PrintWeek will release a shortlist in each of the 18 categories one week before the award winners are announced through an online event. Also, a Women To Watch Awards Special will be published by PrintWeek. The Women to Watch Awards supplement will highlight their achievements and contributions to the industry. We look forward to sharing their stories with our readers. Stay tuned for more details on the release of the special edition.
