Begun as a response to the COVID-19 impact to Sri Lankan entrepreneurs, SLESN is keen on establishing entrepreneur friendly policies among both public and private sectors.
“As innovators we understand that we need to lead a change for it to happen. We will focus on developing the right policies, regulations and frameworks that will ensure that Sri Lankan entrepreneurs in the future will have a strong, equal and relevant platform to create a value adding impact on our economy and grow-global,” a spokesperson said.
