MillenniumIT has been ranked the Most Respected IT company in Sri Lanka for 2014 by the Lanka Monthly Digest’s (LMD) annual rankings. MillenniumIT tops six other technology companies that were nominated in the survey and was also ranked highly in the survey for Innovation and Corporate Culture. LMD, Sri Lanka’s leading business magazine, identified and conducted this annual survey together with global research giant Nielsen. The survey was conducted over a period of two months, and the results were formulated based on the opinions of 800 senior executives from the State and private sectors. MillenniumIT Chief Executive Officer Mack Gill said: “It is an honour to be recognised by industry peers as Sri Lanka’s most respected technology company, especially having been ranked amongst some of the country’s corporate leaders across all industries. It is our ambition to make MillenniumIT one of the best performing and most respected technology companies in our industry globally.” MillenniumIT has built a corporate culture that values innovation, excellence and integrity.
