These products, equipped with AMD’s Krackan Point AI APUs, offer enhanced performance, intelligent features, and an intuitive user experience—catering to consumers, businesses, and creators alike.

As the exclusive distributor and service provider for Lenovo’s AMD range in Sri Lanka, Technocity’s expansive portfolio now includes: AI-enabled laptops; AI-driven desktops (standard and mini form); AI monitors; All-in-one PCs and TFT displays and accessories.

This AI-focused portfolio reinforces Technocity’s role as a future-ready technology provider for every segment of the market.

The prestigious event was attended by top Lenovo leadership, including Lenovo Director (Overseas) – Consumer, Commercial and Tablets Naveen Kejriwal, Shekhar Karmakar, Sameer Varshney, Ram Prasad, Vikas Malhotra, and Nikhil Narkade, along with the Lenovo Sri Lanka team.

The event also saw participation from Lenovo’s South Asian teams, including members from Bangladesh, highlighting Lenovo’s deep regional commitment.
