Contribute to Our TechTogether 2026 Campaign

TechTogether is techUK's month-long diversity, equity and inclusion campaign running throughout March, now in its second year after a first run in 2025. What makes it worth understanding, beyond it being a call for content, is the specific shape of its four themes, because they map directly onto four genuinely distinct problems rather than one generic "diversity" umbrella.

National Careers Week covers career pathways, skills development, real case studies and emerging roles, essentially the pipeline problem: how people find out these careers exist and how they get in. Empowering women in tech covers workplace bias, gender pay gaps, retention and female leadership specifically, the problem of women getting in but not staying or progressing at the same rate. Equity by design is the theme most relevant to anyone in product or design roles specifically: inclusive and accessible product development, closing connectivity gaps, and co-designing products with disabled, ethnic minority and older users rather than designing for a default user and retrofitting accessibility afterward. The evolving online safety landscape theme covers AI bias, fraud prevention, inclusive recruitment and diverse community involvement in shaping online safety policy, treating safety itself as a domain where whose voices get consulted changes the outcome.

The practical contribution routes are genuinely low-barrier: blogs capped at 400 to 600 words, written interviews, or short videos under two minutes, alongside a headshot, job title, biography and company logo. The March deadline is the 11th for general contributions, with a slightly later 18 March deadline specifically for content tied to International Data Centre Day, a sub-initiative publishing on 25 March focused on engineering roles, skills pipelines and diversity in technical recruitment specifically within the data centre sector.

Contribution is restricted to techUK members, which is a genuine access point worth knowing about for any accredited provider or employer partner already inside the techUK ecosystem: this is one of the more direct routes for a real practitioner's perspective, rather than a marketing summary, to reach techUK's audience under their own name. The campaign also sits alongside techUK's ongoing Skills, Talent & Diversity Programme and its Returners Hub, both worth checking for anyone whose contribution touches career re-entry rather than first entry into the sector.
