A first from Softlogic

Softlogic unveiled its own range of laptop computers branded Softlogic Maxmo in three different models, Softlogic Maxmo 1595 (Dual Core), Softlogic Maxmo 1423 (Core i3) and Softlogic Maxmo 1524 (Core i5) for the first time in Sri Lanka.

"Softlogic Maxmo laptops, carrying a tagline of maximum mobility come built with the latest technology," Softlogic Holdings PLC chairman Ashok Pathirage said.

The long term goal of projects such as these is to put in place the infrastructure and mindset required to propel countries like Sri Lanka into the digital age, by creating an ICT- ready population. Softlogic is fully geared to support that initiative by making significant inroads to make affordable, technologically advanced Softlogic Maxmo laptops more accessible to all Sri Lankans, he said.

"This is also in support of the Education Ministry's goal to increase the Sri Lankan information technology literacy rate to 75 percent by 2016 and make inroads towards making Sri Lanka a fully developed knowledge hub," Pathirage said.

Softlogic is one of the leading organisations in Sri Lanka today, having expanded and diversified into the growth sectors of retail, healthcare, ICT, automobiles, travel, leisure and finance, holding authorised distributorship for some key global brand names.

Softlogic today, employs over 5, 000 people in its offices located in Sri Lanka, Singapore and Australia.
