Mr. Vajeendra S Kandegamage MBCS, CITP
Chairman 2025 – 2026
It is a great honor to be elected as Chairman of the BCS Sri Lanka Section for the year 2025. For almost two decades, I have been actively involved with our section—serving as an ICT judge for the National ICT Competition, as an International Judge for the Asia Pacific ICT Awards (NBQSA), and contributing as an Exco member since 2006. During this time, I have helped organize and support the National ICT Awards, a prestigious competition that I had the privilege of leading for ten consecutive years, elevating the standards we celebrate today. As Secretary for four years and Chairman for 2021-2022, I introduced initiatives such as an online judging platform for national and international competitions, a B2B programme, and a Certificate of Product Quality, among others….
