The event served as a platform for fostering closer economic ties and exploring new opportunities for collaboration between the two nations.

Industry leaders, entrepreneurs, and stakeholders from various sectors, such as clothing/textiles, tea, supply chain and food and beverages were present. Participants engaged in knowledge sharing, while exchanging their product samples and also laying the foundation for potential business partnerships.

The Australian delegation, led by President of SLACC, Kalum De Silva received a warm welcome from key figures of the National Chamber, including National Chamber President Deepal Nelson, Senior Deputy President Anura Warnakulasooriya, Honorary Secretary Dr. Lakmal Fernando, Honorary Treasurer Chamika Godamanne, and Secretary General/CEO Bandula Dissanayake.

A highlight of the event was the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the National Chamber of Commerce of Sri Lanka (NCCSL) and the Sri Lanka and Australia Chamber of Commerce (SLACC). The MoU formalises the commitment of both organisations to work together in enhancing trade, investment, and economic cooperation between Sri Lanka and Australia. It outlines a roadmap for joint initiatives, information exchange, and collaborative projects that will benefit businesses from both countries.

The event showcased the potential for bilateral trade and investment and emphasised the strong economic synergy between Sri Lanka and Australia.
