The ceremony will be graced by distinguished guests, the Prime Minister Dinesh Gunawardena as Chief Guest, along with the Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China to Sri Lanka Qi Zhenhong, and the State Minister of Investment Promotion Dilum Amunugama, as guests of honour. Their presence will be facilitated by Colombo Port City Economic Commission Chairman Dinesh Weerakkody, and CHEC Port City Colombo Ltd. Managing Director, the regulatory authority and primary developer of the project. Key members of Parliament, government officials, esteemed investors, industry representatives, and other dignitaries also will join this significant

Strategically located within close proximity to Colombo’s existing central business district, the Business Centre offers a unique commercial ecosystem for diverse businesses.
