Friday, 20 May 2011 01:31 - - {{hitsCtrl.values.hits}}

The CIMA Business Leaders Summit 2011 will take place at the Cinnamon Grand Colombo from 21-22 June 2010. The two-day flagship event in the CIMA calendar is expected to attract over 500 diverse groups of corporates, business leaders and professionals.

The theme of the summit ‘changing challenge-challenging change’ is rightly coined to draw focus what the business leaders are up against.

Given such speed of change, the challenges faced by individuals, businesses and nations push us to collectively challenge the changes that we have already been made to survive. The best example in the most recent times is the story of iPad. Within a year of the launch of the iPad, Apple themselves had to challenge their own product, which one would have thought to be a break through innovation. It is in this background we have sought international and local speakers to share their thoughts from individual to a nation. How survival is possible by challenging changes in the changing challenge environment

The summit will feature a lively mix of both local and global personalities from the corporate world. Patricia Gallardo Director of CSR and Sustainability Shangri-La International Hotel Management, Ltd. Hongkong will deliver the Keynote speech at the inauguration. Hon. Minister Patali Champika Ranawaka, Minister of Power & Energy will start off the conference sessions with the keynote on the 22 June, the second day of the Summit. Other speakers at the conference includes Dr. Nitin Pangarkar, Associate Professor, National University of Singapore, Singapore , Jessica Cox, Motivational Speaker, USA , Dr. Devdutt Pattanaik, Chief Belief Officer, Future Group, India, Andrew Harding, Managing Director, CIMA, UK, Harris Premaratne, Managing Director, Sampath Bank, and Ajith Devasurendra, Deputy Chairman, Browns Group; Director Seylan Bank; Group CEO, Taprobane.
