Sri Lanka is set to take centre stage once again as Voyage Sri Lanka 2025—the nation’s flagship international marine summit returns on 16 October at The Kingsbury Hotel, Colombo.
Building on the resounding success of its inaugural edition in 2024, which drew 240 participants from eight countries and featured 24 global speakers, this year’s summit sets even higher ambitions: 300+ attendees, 12+ participating nations, and a sharper focus on turning Sri Lanka’s blue economy potential into tangible outcomes.
Organised by the EDB, the event will bring together Government policymakers, industry leaders, global investors, academia, and innovators, all aligned under one mission: Unveiling the Blue Economy Potential of Sri Lanka.
