Bhasha Headquarters, the home for local language software solutions in Sri Lanka was opened in Kalutara recently. Bhasha Lanka, well-known as Bhasha was founded by Dhanika Perera, a young Sri Lankan entrepreneur in 2011 when he was an undergraduate at University of Moratuwa and existed as a fully Virtual Company for more than one and half years.

Introducing the concept of Virtual Companies to Sri Lanka, Bhasha successfully operated as a Virtual Company with all part-time employees including its CEO and innovated, a number of award-winning local language software products and recognised by several Global and National Awards.

The mBillionth South Asian Mobile Award (2011), e-Swabhimani National Award (2011 and 2012) and National Best Quality Software Award (NBQSA 2012) were some of the awards won by them.

Transiting its state from a Virtual Company to a Physical Company, Bhasha opened their Headquarters in Kalutara, controversially outside Colombo. “Today in an e-World, we believe that the location is immaterial for an IT company to conduct their business and we have already proved that by the recognition we gained while operating as a fully Virtual Company with no physical location.” Bhasha founder and CEO Dhanika Perera said, explaining their decision to locate outside Colombo.

With a deep vision of ‘Empower the Masses’, Bhasha is a Company working towards enabling the use of information technology for the non-English speaking people in Sri Lanka and South Asia by providing them software solutions in their own local languages, helping them to overcome their language barrier.
