SLTMobitel is Sri Lanka’s most established digital services provider. In recent years it has aligned its strategy with the Sri Lankan government’s vision to create a “Digital Sri Lanka”, to help build a digital society and enhance inclusive socio-economic progress. Its mission is to become the national digital partner to Sri Lanka.
This strategic direction saw SLTMobitel go on a transformational journey that involved a huge shift from solely providing connectivity to becoming a comprehensive digital services enabler, transforming from telco to techco.
As part of their transformational strategy, one of SLTMobitel’s key objectives was to accelerate their Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises’ (MSMEs’) digital footprint. They wanted to empower these entrepreneurs to focus on essential digital services that would drive their success to the forefront.
“The business landscape is witnessing a widespread adoption of digital transformation, particularly among micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises in Sri Lanka. These businesses are proactively exploring avenues to incorporate this transformative shift, aiming to capitalise on new revenue streams.
Essential to this journey is the utilisation of tools like “do it yourself” (DIY), which holds a crucial role in not only facilitating their online digital presence but also empowering these enterprises to undergo a smooth and effective digital transformation.”
