Lenovo Tech World ’26 India Edition Focuses on AI

Lenovo Tech World ’26 India Edition opened in New Delhi with a clear message: artificial intelligence is moving from concept to mainstream deployment across devices, gaming, enterprise infrastructure and digital creation.

Held at JW Marriott, the event brought together industry leaders, chipmakers, cloud players, channel partners, creators and enterprise decision makers. The central theme, “Smarter AI for All”, framed discussions around AI-driven personal computing and intelligent ecosystems.

Digital Terminal attended the event to track how Lenovo is positioning India within its broader AI roadmap.

AI PCs and devices take centre stage

The exhibition floor was organised into immersive demo zones featuring AI-powered PCs, smartphones, tablets, gaming systems and smart devices.

The demonstrations focused on:

• On-device AI capabilities

• Optimised silicon collaborations

• Intelligent software integration

• Seamless multitasking across use cases

From proof-of-concept systems to commercially available AI PCs, Lenovo showcased how AI can personalise workflows, improve performance and support both consumer and professional requirements.

The emphasis was not limited to hardware. The integration between silicon, software and system design reflected a shift toward tighter AI enablement at the device level.

The combined participation signalled ecosystem-level collaboration rather than isolated product announcements.

AI beyond productivity: gaming and content creation

Lenovo Tech World ’26 India Edition extended AI discussions beyond enterprise and productivity.

The Agentic AI Masterclass and an AI Filmmaking Masterclass explored how generative AI tools are influencing storytelling and digital production workflows.

Gaming featured prominently. The Valorant 2v2 Skirmish Grand Finale drew attention to performance-driven systems. An AI-powered gaming content creation masterclass featuring Naman Mathur, Animesh Agarwal and Salman Ahmad examined how AI tools assist in:

• Streaming optimisation

• Content enhancement

• Audience engagement

The Sidepod session added another dimension, connecting sports, technology and digital fandom. Claire Sparks, Head of Portfolio and Technical Initiatives at Formula 1, joined content creators Rohan Joshi, Azeem Banatwalla, Arjun S Ravi and Sherry Shroff to discuss how technology is shaping fan experiences.

Enterprise focus to follow

As Day 1 concluded, the narrative was consistent: AI integration is accelerating across personal devices and creative tools, with India positioned as a key growth market.

Day 2 is expected to focus on enterprise capabilities and ambient intelligence innovations, further expanding the scope beyond end-user devices into infrastructure and solutions.

Lenovo Tech World ’26 India Edition thus presented AI not as a future ambition but as an operational shift already underway across computing categories.
