Ceylon Chamber’s Investment Summit 2026 to steer Sri Lanka beyond stabilisation

The Ceylon Chamber of Commerce is hosting the Sri Lanka Economic & Investment Summit 2026 at Shangri-La Colombo, on October 12 and 13. The summit convenes senior policymakers, international financiers, multilateral development partners, and private-sector leaders to chart Sri Lanka's path to macroeconomic growth. The theme, "Positioning Sri Lanka in a Changing Global Economy: Resilience, Reform, and the Future of Economic Policy," marks a crucial juncture in the nation's post-crisis phase.

The summit aims to attract high-impact foreign direct investment, deepen regional trade integration, and unlock emerging sectors.

The agenda focuses on building resilience amidst global market volatility, executing policy reforms, and enhancing operational efficiency and transparency. Key notes and discussions will be led by Prime Minister Dr. Harini Amarasuriya, T. Krishnakumar, CEO of Reliance Consumer Products Ltd., and senior leaders from the Asian Development Bank, International Finance Corporation, Standard Chartered Bank, and Zydus Lifesciences.

This year's summit emphasizes the convergence between state policy and global commercial expertise, with a strong representation of executive and legislative leadership from both the government and private sectors. By fostering a high-level dialogue between investors and policymakers, the Ceylon Chamber seeks to refine regulatory frameworks, improve ease of doing business, and create a predictable environment for capital formation.
