Stax Inc., a global strategy consulting firm, is set to highlight and present the Sri Lankan advantage at an event tagged ‘Investment Opportunities in Resurgent Sri Lanka’ in collaboration with The Singapore Sri Lanka Business Council (SLBA), The Singapore International Chamber of Commerce (SICC) and the International Enterprise (IE). The event will take place on 15 September at The Tower Club.
The program will be led by Stax Founder and CEO Rafi Musher and Stax Director Dr. Kumudu Gunasekera with the objective of informing Singaporean business leaders, including corporates, SMEs and private equity firms on the investment opportunities available in Sri Lanka, and emphasise how Stax as a leading strategy consulting partner could leverage potential investment opportunities based on extensive research and analysis.
Stax Managing Director Ruwindhu Peiris opined, “The key for our success over the two decades of our existence is that we’ve been providing corporations and private equity firms with clear, actionable, fact-based strategic advice on growth, profit. Our deep market knowledge across a myriad of industry verticals and a unique array of capabilities enables us to deliver best outcomes.” He further added, “Sri Lanka is transforming into attractive investment geography. As we speak we are working with a number of international firms, serving them from the initial acquisition screening to helping them finalise their investments. This platform to network with the business community in Singapore is a perfect opportunity for us to promote the Sri Lankan business environment, country advantage as well as to help bridge the expectation of a prospective investor through rigid and practical consulting services.”
Stax serves large corporations and private equity firms across multiple sectors and regions, advising on changes in market needs, growth, profit improvement and major investments. The company has operated in Sri Lanka since 2005 and has helped a number of international firms successfully enter the local market. Its corporate strategy clients range from $ 100 local million companies to $ 30 billion global corporations and its private equity clients and their portfolio companies include 14 of the top 20 global LBO firms.
