Sri Lanka has taken a bold leap into the future with the launch of “SriLankanization,” a transformative initiative aimed at establishing the country as a global tech hub. This visionary program, spearheaded by Trainocate, seeks to address the challenges of brain drain and the skills gap by equipping 10,000 Sri Lankans with cutting-edge expertise in Data, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Security by the end of 2025.

The program is not just about technical upskilling; it embodies a larger mission to foster innovation, collaboration, and excellence in Sri Lanka’s tech industry. Sri Lankanization aspires to position Sri Lanka as a beacon of technological innovation, nurturing startups and creating a highly skilled workforce sought after by companies worldwide.

Strategic Partnerships for Sustainable Growth
To achieve this ambitious vision, Trainocate has partnered with universities, private sector organizations, and government bodies. This collaborative effort includes curriculum integration and community engagement, aiming to create a robust ecosystem that supports talent development and innovation.

“We believe Sri Lanka’s potential is immense,” said a Trainocate spokesperson. “SriLankanization is about unlocking that potential and enabling our nation to compete on the global stage.”

Combatting Brain Drain
As thousands of skilled professionals leave Sri Lanka each year in search of better opportunities, SriLankanization is a timely intervention. By offering world-class training in rapidly evolving tech fields, the initiative provides Sri Lankans with opportunities to excel without leaving their homeland.

A Vision for the Future
The program envisions a future where Sri Lanka becomes synonymous with technological prowess, with a thriving startup culture and a dynamic tech-driven economy.
