Sri Lanka–Thailand Business Council Celebrates 25 Years of Strengthening Economic and Business Partnerships
The Sri Lanka–Thailand Business Council (SLTBC) marks its 25th anniversary in 2026, celebrating a quarter-century of promoting economic cooperation, trade, investment, and friendship between Sri Lanka and Thailand.
Since its establishment at the beginning of the new millennium, the Council has served as a key platform connecting the private sectors of both countries, creating opportunities for businesses, encouraging dialogue, and strengthening bilateral relations.
Founded on a shared vision to enhance commercial engagement between two nations with deep cultural, religious, and historical ties, the SLTBC has evolved into a dynamic forum supporting entrepreneurs, investors, exporters, and industry leaders in identifying new opportunities for growth and collaboration.
Over the past 25 years, the Council has played an important role in advancing Sri Lanka–Thailand trade and investment relations through business forums, trade missions, networking platforms, and strategic collaborations with organisations including the Department of International Trade and Promotion and the Board of Trade of Thailand. These initiatives have supported market access, knowledge exchange, and stronger connections between business communities.
The Council’s contributions have helped expand bilateral cooperation across diverse sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, logistics, healthcare, education, and emerging technologies. By bringing together business leaders and policymakers, the SLTBC has supported an environment that encourages sustainable economic partnerships.
The longstanding relationship between Sri Lanka and Thailand, built on centuries of cultural exchange and shared Buddhist heritage, has provided a strong foundation for expanding economic ties. The Council has continued to champion this relationship by promoting collaboration that extends beyond commerce.
As regional economies become increasingly connected, the SLTBC remains committed to advancing innovation, entrepreneurship, and cross-border partnerships that create shared value and long-term growth.
The 25th anniversary serves as both a celebration of the Council’s achievements and a platform to look ahead toward emerging opportunities in areas such as digital transformation, sustainable development, renewable energy, advanced manufacturing, tourism, and services.
