TEDxColombo has done a commendable job in bringing the platform to Sri Lanka and giving local thinkers the opportunity to communicate their learnings and experiences.


As a technology company, we understand the importance of building knowledge capital.


The continuous pursuit of knowledge enabled us to evolve from a startup to a global technology center, and that is why we continue to support important knowledge-sharing platforms like TEDx."


Safra Anver, the licensee of TEDxColombo, expressed,


"Sysco LABS shares our vision of a world enriched by transformative ideas - we are extremely glad to have an industry leader come on board for this year's edition.


The ‘T’ in TED stands for technology, so having Sysco LABS as our Main Partner for TEDxColombo was a perfect match.


The ‘Sysco LABS Delivery Dash’ interactive installation which was custom designed for the Social Space at the event was immensely popular with our attendees as well.”
