The Ministry recognised Sysco LABS as the premiere US technology corporate and major export contributor, while Sysco LABS reaffirmed its role as Sri Lanka’s premier IT brand and catalyst for nurturing local tech talent.
OSL take:
Sri Lanka’s digital industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the country as well as becoming a hotspot for business/investment opportunities. The country’s commitment to transforming into an e-economy is evident by the launch of the ambitious digitalization programme covering all sectors this year. While there are many business/investment opportunities in the ICT and digital infrastructure development sectors in the country, there are also emerging business opportunities in related sectors as well. The growth, profits and expansion of businesses already engaged in the digital industry and related sectors clearly indicate the fast-expanding Nature’s of the industry. Also, with Sri Lanka on the path to becoming a hub in the South Asian region, the business/investment opportunities in Sri Lanka’s digital industry and related sectors present not only lucrative ventures, but also revolving businesses given the fast-evolving global digital industry.
