Industry Leaders Outline 2026 Tech Priorities: Cloud Agility, AI Scale, and Resilient Digital Infrastructure

Balancing cloud-led agility with infrastructure resilience

“As organisations prepare for 2026, enterprise technology is entering a period of accelerated evolution driven by cloud-first architectures, AI-powered automation, and the rapid build-out of digital public infrastructure. These shifts signal a clear move toward services-led transformation models that prioritise agility, resilience, and measurable business outcomes. At the same time, traditional IT infrastructure continues to play a foundational role, anchoring the stability and performance that large-scale digital environments demand. The year ahead will require technology partners to blend deep services expertise with robust infrastructure capabilities to support mission-critical, high-complexity programmes. Companies that can balance both dimensions will be best positioned to enable organisations as they navigate this next era of digital growth.”– Ajay Sawant, Chairman & Managing Director, Orient Technologies

AI scale meets rising security and resilience demands

“2025 highlighted both the promise of AI and the mounting pressures felt across sectors from security and cybersecurity to healthcare and beyond. Over the past year, organisations across industries accelerated their adoption of AI for automation, decision intelligence, and operational efficiency, even as they navigated increasingly sophisticated, persistent, and unpredictable threats and disruptions. This dual trajectory has reshaped expectations for 2026, where AI will continue to drive scale, speed, and innovation across every digital ecosystem. As an industry-agnostic solutions provider, we see this shift impacting all sectors alike: the need for continuous intelligence, resilient architectures, and adaptive, self-learning systems is no longer limited to one domain. The path ahead is a transition from fragmented, reactive approaches to integrated, AI-powered frameworks that uphold trust, reliability, and long-term digital growth.” – Tejesh Kodali, Group Chairman, Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited
