Message from the President

Mr. SANDUN HAPUGODA
As President of the American Chamber of Commerce in Sri Lanka, it is my privilege to welcome you to our platform at a time of renewed momentum and opportunity.
Founded in 1992, AMCHAM Sri Lanka has grown into one of the country’s most respected and influential business chambers, bringing together over 350 leading U.S. and Sri Lankan companies at the forefront of trade, investment, and economic collaboration. Our strength lies not only in our network, but in the calibre of leadership within it and the shared intent to drive real impact.
In an increasingly interconnected and rapidly evolving global environment, AMCHAM continues to play a meaningful role in shaping dialogue, strengthening policy engagement, and advancing bilateral trade between Sri Lanka and the United States. Through strategic engagement with government, close collaboration with the U.S. Embassy, and a robust platform of forums, partnerships, and knowledge exchange, we continue to create opportunities that enable businesses to grow, adapt, and lead.
Sri Lanka stands at a defining moment. The path ahead calls for clarity of vision, consistency, and strong public-private alignment. AMCHAM is uniquely positioned to support this journey by championing private sector leadership, fostering trusted partnerships, and advocating for an environment where businesses can operate with confidence to a more competitive, transparent, and future-ready economy.
As we continue to evolve, this platform reflects our commitment to greater connectivity, stronger engagement, and delivering lasting value to our members and stakeholders. We look forward to working closely with our partners to strengthen this important economic relationship that actively shapes tomorrow’s opportunities.
We invite you to engage with us as we continue to strengthen one of the most important economic partnerships for Sri Lanka’s future. Thank you for being part of the AMCHAM Sri Lanka network.
Sandun Hapugoda
President
AMCHAM Sri Lanka
