The baton of leadership was handed over from outgoing President, Chinese Dragon Café Director Naishadh Udeshi to the newly appointed President, Stafford Motor Company Ltd., Executive Director Tarindra Kaluperuma. Kaluperuma is focused on helping members explore EO beyond the country, encouraging engagement with the larger EO community outside of EO Sri Lanka. His theme, "Beyond Boundaries, Beyond Limits", embodies a vision of deeper and wider connections, inspiring members to broaden their horizons and build meaningful relationships across borders.
Since its inception in 2017, EO Sri Lanka has grown steadily, weathering global crises and maintaining its commitment to entrepreneurial development. The chapter now includes over 60 active members and continues to contribute significantly to the larger EO community, which spans 222 chapters and more than 87 countries, representing over 19,000 members worldwide.
