EWIS is geared towards an eco-friendly initiative; “Green is a shade of blue”. This initiative is in place with the vision of directing the local ICT sector towards an eco-friendly platform with many eco-friendly options made available. On that ground, we want to seek greener shades in our, corporate blue” Mr. Sanjeewa Wickramanayake, the Chairman/ CEO of the EWIS Group expressed his vision for the New Year; 2010/ 2011.

Ethics and CSR will be an important topic in the EWIS corporate agenda. EWIS is also the only ICT Company in the Country to affiliate with the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), which reflects just how seriously it takes its ethics & social responsibility. Sanjeewa Wickramanayake, Chairman/CEO, E-wis, explains: “Our best practices mirrored the tenets embedded in the UNGC and it seemed to us a natural corollary to affiliate with a global code of best practices that has been embraced by world-class corporates.”

E-Praja Kirana, the CSR initiative of EWIS is born out of a desire to provide rich employment opportunities in rural areas so that brain drain is eliminated at the grassroot level, discouraging village youth to move to the city and then leave the Country’s shores. “My aim is to take IT to the villages; outsource IT expertise from villages. By enhancing ICT infrastructure in rural areas, local youth will be empowered to live and work in familiar environments,” he adds. Already EWIS has outsource employees from around the Country who are now involved in many significant projects.

Mr. Wickramanayake further stated, “This year ahead will be a very special one for the Country. We are finally facing the world as a peaceful nation without the tension of terrorism. With this positive background, we all should look forward to a prosperous future..  My team and I, commit ourselves to you with the assurance of continuous quality and supreme customer care in the years to come.
