The symposium has been designed to challenge brands to find viable solutions for tomorrow’s challenges while also enabling the Sri Lankan marketing fraternity with a golden opportunity to network, share experiences and band together to create effective branding approaches in light of the country’s economic crisis. Our speakers will help guide these marketers towards creating sustainable brands of tomorrow.”
