Under the theme "In Pursuit of AI", the Expo will demonstrate how artificial intelligence is reshaping sectors such as agriculture, education, banking, finance, IT, healthcare, and manufacturing. Over two action-packed days, attendees can look forward to over 12 sessions, featuring more than 25 speakers and 25 exhibitors, all highlighting innovations that are driving Sri Lanka's AI movement.
SLT Group Chairman Dr. Mothilal De Silva said: "SLT-Mobitel as Sri Lanka's National ICT Solutions Provider, recognises the immense potential of artificial intelligence and it becomes our responsibility to drive the country's digital future."
