TECHNO 2026 Exhibition

The IESL stands as the premier professional body for engineers in Sri Lanka, representing excellence, integrity, and innovation in the engineering profession. For decades, it has played a pivotal role in advancing engineering knowledge, setting professional standards, and contributing to national development through sustainable and forward-thinking solutions.

TECHNO, first launched in 1985, has grown into one of the most anticipated engineering and technology exhibitions in the country. Over the years, it has evolved into a dynamic platform that showcases cutting-edge innovations, promotes industry-academia collaboration, and connects engineers with the wider public. This long-standing tradition reflects the enduring commitment of IESL to foster technological progress and national growth.

The theme of this year’s exhibition, “Engineering for a Resilient Nation,” is both timely and significant. As Sri Lanka navigates complex challenges—from climate change and infrastructure demands to economic recovery—the role of engineering has never been more critical. TECHNO 2026 provides a vital platform to explore resilient solutions, share knowledge, and inspire innovation that will shape a stronger and more sustainable future for our nation.

This exhibition offers immense benefits to all stakeholders. It creates opportunities for professionals to showcase their expertise, for businesses to present their products and services, for students to gain exposure to real-world applications, and for the public to better understand the transformative power of engineering. It is a space where ideas meet action, and where collaboration drives progress.

I take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to all who have contributed to the success of TECHNO from its inception in 1985 to the present day—organizers, exhibitors, sponsors, and participants. Your unwavering support has made this exhibition a hallmark event in Sri Lanka’s engineering calendar.

I warmly invite you to be part of TECHNO 2026, which will be held on the 16th, 17th, and 18th of October at the BMICH. Join us in celebrating innovation, sharing knowledge, and working together towards building a resilient nation.

Let us come together to engineer a better future.
