Sri Lanka, with its fast growing economy and vast untapped broadband market, has the potential to take its ICT market to new heights.
The ICT industry of Sri Lanka is one the fastest growing and has the potential to emerge as one of the leading revenue generators for the country, says “Sri Lankan ICT Market Analysis”, a new research report from RNCOS. The report says that Sri Lanka has been showing strong determination to develop its infrastructure despite ongoing political problems and this sustainable economic growth is one of the main reasons boosting growth in the country’s ICT market. At present, the Sri Lankan economy is counted among the most moderate economies in South Asia that has succeeded in maintaining healthy growth rates in recent past. Moreover, the country has some added benefits in developing its ICT industry, like favorable macro-economic policies and a business culture open to international investors and partners. In addition, Sri Lankan telecom industry, constituted by fixed and Wireless Local Loop (WLL) operators, and mobile and public phone operators, is the most liberal in South Asia. However, the broadband penetration in Sri Lanka is still very low, representing huge growth opportunities for the ICT market, says the RNCOS report.
