New Delhi, India – 20 February, 2026 – <\/strong>In a significant move toward realizing the national vision of a developed and formally skilled India, Capgemini, GMR Foundation, Indigo Airlines, EXL Service, and NITI Aayog<\/strong> today announced a collective commitment to workforce employability at the India AI Impact Summit 2026<\/strong>. Central to this commitment is the adoption of B9<\/strong>, a unified digital platform designed to bring transparency, accountability, and verified outcomes to India’s skilling ecosystem.<\/p>\n

Envisioned by the Capgemini<\/strong> Corporate Responsibility team and built by SuperHumanRace<\/strong>, B9 serves as the digital backbone for large-scale social investments. By enabling partners to track their own beneficiary cohorts with donor-grade precision, the platform ensures that skilling outlays translate directly into verifiable employment and income uplift, key pillars of the Viksit Bharat 2047 <\/strong>agenda.<\/p>\n

The announcement underscores a shift in how India’s corporate sector approaches the “Skill & Employment Paradox.” Rather than working in silos, Indian industry leaders are leveraging shared digital infrastructure to solve the persistent challenge of duplicate enrollments and fragmented outcome data.<\/p>\n

Sarika Naik<\/strong>, Global Chief Corporate Responsibility Officer, Capgemini<\/strong> and Member of the Group Executive Committee<\/strong>, said: “At Capgemini, our commitment to creating sustainable, inclusive impact is deeply tied to the livelihoods of India’s youth. B9 is a significant milestone in our skilling mission. It brings trust, transparency, and accountability to the core of beneficiary journeys and enables us to meaningfully measure long-term impact across our academies. We are proud to partner with SuperHumanRace in co-creating a platform that strengthens the skilling ecosystem at scale.”<\/p>\n

While each partner will utilize B9 to track their unique beneficiary journeys, the collective adoption creates a “hive” of trusted data. This allows policymakers and investors to see a real-time, deduplicated map of India’s progress toward formal employability.<\/p>\n

Gagandeep K. Bhullar, Founder & CEO, SuperHumanRace<\/strong>, said: “B9 represents a shift from fragmented, paper-driven skilling workflows to unified, digital journeys grounded in trust. Together with Capgemini, we are building a transparent and equitable skilling ecosystem that ensures every candidate gets a fair opportunity and every donor sees verifiable impact. This is technology in service of human potential, at scale, creating measurable impact.”<\/p>\n

By utilizing intelligent duplicate detection and end-to-end journey mapping, from enrollment to certification to placement, B9 provides the “evidence packs” required for modern, outcome-linked funding and national-level impact reporting.<\/p>\n
