About this event

Interested in gaining insight into the opportunities within Sri Lankan for Danish businesses?

Then this is your chance! Sign up for this open-for-all event co-hosted by Asis House, Innovation Lab Asia, and Sri Lanka Export Development Board.

Positioned as a key trading hub in the Indian Ocean, the tear-drop-shaped island has one of the most liberal economies in South Asia. Sri Lanka is one of the region’s most innovative and disruptive IT products-, IT services-, Business Process Management (BPM), and Business Process Outsourcing hubs.

Sri Lanka is home to a vibrant knowledge solutions industry that boasts an international footprint, with an accelerating number of global firms that have discovered the country’s innovative powers.

Sri Lanka’s rise as a global technology and BPM hub results from a list of compelling strengths, which now also position the country as a highly interesting place for Danish businesses to investigate talent and opportunities across several technological areas.

So what are the reasons that Sri Lanka – the Island of Ingenuity – is becoming increasingly appealing to Danish and international companies?

During the event, the answers to this question will be presented as a part of the launch of the Innovation Lab Asia report on the Sri Lankan Innovation Ecosystem.

The report focuses on the country's business opportunities based on the country's strongholds within the areas of banking & FinTech, transport and logistics, IT, BPO & BPM, Healthcare & MedTech, AgriTech, and other areas. The report also presents important leads, the most interesting stakeholders, and the state of the economy overall.

In short, the report gives Danish businesses a realistic understanding of which areas hold the most promise for them, while giving a solid introduction to the local business scene, and the many opportunities it represents.

Beyond the formal launch of and introduction to the new report, the event will also present an interesting panel discussion and Q/A with several highly qualified experts and specialists from Sri Lanka's most prominent stakeholders:

  • Sri Lanka Association for Software Services Companies (SLASSCOM)
  • The Federation of Information Technology Industry Sri Lanka (FITIS)
  • Sri Lanka Export Development Board
  • The Information and Communication Technology Agency of Sri Lanka (ICTA)

Senior directors and executives from these organizations will share their insight and experience during a panel discussion facilitated by Asia House, after which a Q&A session will take place, giving the audience a chance to have their questions answered by domain experts.

The online event will take place Friday the 20th of May 2022.
