One of Sri Lanka’s leading engineering organisations, the Diesel and Motor Engineering PLC (DIMO) – the authorised distributor for Mercedes-Benz vehicles in Sri Lanka – will steer the 33rd National Conference of Chartered Accountants organised by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Sri Lanka (CA Sri Lanka) with a bronze sponsorship.

This year’s conference from 18 October including two days of technical sessions will centre around the inspiring theme ‘Winning: Country, Corporate, Citizen’ and will see a fully-fledged panel of experts who will steer chartered accountants and professionals from other disciplines to ensure they achieve success at all levels.

DIMO Chairman Ranjith Pandithage said, “It is indeed a pleasure to partner with an esteemed institution such as the Institute of Chartered Accountants Sri Lanka on their National Conference. CA Sri Lanka has been in the forefront of developing professionals in accountancy and finance and is one of the largest professional organisations in Sri Lanka. DIMO is in the business of touching the lives of people and making a difference in their lifestyles, by partnering with the world’s best names including Mercedes-Benz. We believe our partnership with the National Conference is in-line with our tribal approach.”

With an illustrious history spanning over seven decades, DIMO now represents more than 50 of the world’s best engineering brands including Mercedes-Benz, Bosch, Siemens, Osram, Komatsu, Michelin and TATA .

Welcoming DIMO onboard, CA Sri Lanka President Sujeewa Rajapakse said that the sponsorship by DIMO is testament to the reputation that the conference has built over the years since its inauguration in 1979 as one the most looked forward to business summits in the country.

“We will see an exceptional panel of speakers this year too like in the previous years that will explore and guide the country’s professionals on ways to win against all odds, while maintaining a winning attitude despite the challenges thrown at them at regular intervals,” he said.

Expressing views on the sponsorship, CA Sri Lanka National Conference Committee Chairman Lasantha Wickramasinghe noted that the sponsorship by DIMO will strengthen the efforts towards elevating the standards of the National Conference to greater heights, thereby setting a new benchmark.
