The Association of International Marketing Graduates in Sri Lanka (AIMGSL) is scheduled to host the AIMG CEOs’ Breakfast Forum on 2 February at Earls Court, Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo, with the overarching theme and focus of the event to be ‘Setting Sights on EU Markets’.

The event which is expected to welcome all participants across the board will host the European Union to Sri Lanka and the Maldives Ambassador Denis Chaibi as the keynote speaker, and feature Dilmah Tea CEO Dilhan Fernando and Brandix Apparel Solutions CEO Rajiv Malalasekera who will share their invaluable expertise and insight on business expansion, how their brands do market research in EU markets and how their success in such markets began and continues to date.

Chaibi is expected to share in-depth knowledge and insights into the new rules and regulations of the EU Markets; what assistance the EU can extend to Sri Lanka particularly with regard to support in technology and machinery for relevant businesses, such as fisheries; the importance of Renewable Energy; how SME exporters can improve exports to the EU; and what imports can benefit Sri Lanka from the EU.
