Epic Technology Group cemented its position as the country’s premier Fintech solution provider by securing the coveted Overall Gold Award, Overall Bronze Award, and eight other accolades at the recently concluded 20th National Best Quality ICT Awards 2018 (NBQSA), conducted by the Sri Lankan chapter of BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT.

At the end of the prestigious event, Epic demonstrated its sheer dominance in the industry by becoming the most awarded organisation of the night, bagging three Golds, one Silver, two Bronzes and three merit awards. Further recognising the technological prowess of the organisation, Epic Technology Group was honoured with the BCS Sri Lanka Chairman’s Award, in recognition of its outstanding contribution to Sri Lanka’s ICT sector over the last two decades.

Displaying its drive for innovation and disruption as Sri Lanka’s trend-setting Fintech powerhouse, Epic Technology Group clinched the National Overall Gold Award as well as the Financial Category Gold Award for their Epic Card Management System (CMS).
