• Thailand’s Board of Trade to be represented by 25-member strong business delegation 

Today marks a significant milestone in the history of Sri Lanka–-Thailand economic relations as the Sri Lanka-Thailand Business Council (SLTBC) celebrates its silver jubilee, commemorating 25 years of fostering trade, investment, business collaboration and enduring friendship between the two nations.

The prestigious celebration will take place this evening at The Kingsbury Hotel, Colombo, bringing together an influential gathering of business leaders, diplomats, policymakers, entrepreneurs and stakeholders from both countries to honour a remarkable journey that has helped shape one of the region’s most dynamic bilateral business partnerships.

Adding further significance to the occasion, the event will welcome a distinguished 25-member business delegation from Thailand’s Board of Trade, reaffirming the growing strength and strategic importance of economic ties between Sri Lanka and Thailand. 

The SLTBC was founded with a bold vision to transform the longstanding cultural and historical ties between Sri Lanka and Thailand into a thriving economic partnership. Over the past 25 years, the SLTBC has emerged as a catalyst for bilateral trade, investment and business growth, creating invaluable opportunities for enterprises to connect, collaborate and expand beyond borders. 

Through influential business forums, high-level trade missions, strategic partnerships and impactful networking platforms, the SLTBC has played a pivotal role in strengthening commercial relations while fostering innovation, knowledge exchange and sustainable economic development. 

Its contributions have opened doors across a diverse range of sectors including manufacturing, agriculture, tourism, logistics, healthcare, education and technology, generating lasting value for businesses and reinforcing the economic prosperity of both nations.

While today’s silver jubilee celebration marks a proud milestone in the SLTBC’s journey, it also serves as a launchpad for the next era of Sri Lanka-Thailand economic cooperation. As businesses navigate a rapidly evolving global landscape shaped by digital transformation, artificial intelligence, sustainability and innovation, the SLTBC is poised to play an even greater role in driving cross-border partnerships, investment and trade.  

The silver jubilee celebrations will also pay tribute to the founders, past presidents, executive committee members, corporate partners and stakeholders whose vision, leadership and dedication have shaped the SLTBC into one of Sri Lanka’s most respected bilateral business chambers. 

Building on a strong legacy of achievement, the SLTBC looks to the future with renewed purpose and ambition, committed to unlocking new opportunities, fostering innovation and creating lasting economic value that will strengthen the partnership between Sri Lanka and Thailand for generations to come. As such, the silver jubilee stands not only as a celebration of the past 25 years but also as a powerful reminder of the limitless opportunities that lie ahead for two nations united by friendship, shared values and a common vision for economic prosperity.
