“The internet is at the foundation of all of development in Sri Lanka’s digital payments ecosystem.
This in turn has helped democratize and accelerate the uptake of digital transactions, providing citizens, enterprises and the public sector with new opportunities for growth and innovation.
We are therefore proud to serve as Official Payment Network for Sri Lanka Internet Day 2022,” LankaPay Chief Operating Officer, Dinuka Perera said.
Hosted under the theme : ‘Digital Lifestyle : Lifeline to overcome turmoil’, this will be the second consecutive year that the event will be taking place, providing Sri Lankans from all walks of life with an opportunity to engage with local and global industry experts.
“We warmly welcome LankaPay as our Official Payment Network.
As a foundational component of Sri Lanka’s digital payments ecosystem, their engagement with Sri Lanka Internet Day 2022 speaks to the vast untapped potential for all stakeholders in the Sri Lankan economy – from the state sector to large corporates, SMEs, start-ups and entrepreneurs in leveraging the internet to access new economic opportunities,”
“With Sri Lanka Internet Day, we aim to connect these communities to international players, in order to encourage tech and knowledge transfer, and strengthen Sri Lanka’s competitive position as a global player in internet-driven innovation,” FITIS Immediate Past President Digital Services Chapter and Co – Chair Sri Lanka Internet Day Jiffry Zulfer said.
This year’s theme “Digital Lifestyle” was chosen by the organizers, in order to showcase citizen engagement in a digital society; how the internet and digitization can positively impact everyday life by merging with information technology.
The term “digital life” is used to distinguish between parts of human life that take place in “cyberspace”, or which are closely related to digital technologies, and the other areas of life that take place in “real life” independent of digital technologies.
