CIMA 2020 CXO Forum on 24 July

• Key event to delve on ‘Visionaries: Building sustainable business for Sri Lanka’s future’

The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) in Sri Lanka will organise the CXO Forum on the theme of ‘Visionaries: building sustainable business for Sri Lanka’s future’ on 24 July at 6 p.m. as a virtual event. 

Building resilient businesses has always been a priority amongst the top three priorities of any nation. Today’s pandemic-impacted environment has imposed significant threats on traditional business models and the respective economies, which has led companies to focus more on assessing the measures businesses can take to survive and sustain themselves in the new normal. 

The forum aims to achieve this by hosting an impactful strategic discussion on building sustainable businesses, holistically encapsulating the essence of three concepts; the trinity of Big Data, Green Economy and managing investor climate.

Having this objective in mind, areas such as managing external risks and running undisrupted businesses; adapting to sustainable technologies and keeping up with innovations; building strong environmental, social and severance (ESG) pillars; embedding sustainable practices across the value chain – from operations to human resource management; the sustainability USP – identifying, optimising and delivering on investor expectations and managing enterprise sustainability, all of this will be deliberated in length during this virtual forum.

The distinguished panel consists of Artificial Intelligence Academy (AIA) Co-Founder Lin Gong-Deutschmann, Motivational Speaker Leadership Coach Prakash Iyer, Former MD Best-selling Author Kimberly Clark Lever, Cinnamon Hotels and Resorts Head of Brand Marketing Dileep Mudadeniya, John Keells Group Cinnamon Life Mall CEO and Vice President Sri Lanka and Global Head of Investment Research Acuity Knowledge Partners Senior Director/Country Head Chanakya Dissanayake FCMA, CGMA. The session will be moderated by Ceylon Chamber of Commerce Chief Economist Shiran Fernando FCMA, CGMA.

This virtual event is supported by two prominent digital solution providers – Z messenger Ltd. and Ad Studio, who have partnered for this event as the gold sponsor and the exclusive programmatic advertising partner of the event.
