It is the first of five Technology Parks to be established across the Island in order to support Sri Lanka’s IT sector and provide youth with much needed skills, knowledge, and opportunities for high-income employment.
The Galle Techno-Park is being built on a unique 30-acre property atop a low ridge on the Walahanduwa Estate area. the project’s architectural vision retains natural vegetation and features of the land, presenting innovative construction challenges and requiring much of the complex to be constructed on pad footings to suit the undulating terrain.
