Cogent Solutions to Build Billion-Dollar Global Empire - Starting with $20M Bet on Sri Lanka

Top 1% Global Companies Now Hiring in Sri Lanka: Cogent’s Vision 2035 Goes Live

DUBAI, DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, September 8, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Cogent Solutions™, a Dubai-headquartered powerhouse in business intelligence and conference management, has announced a bold US$20 million investment (approximately LKR 5.96 billion) into Sri Lanka to build and expand a center of excellence to shape the future of global B2B conferences as part of its global vision and strategy.
This is more than a capital deployment plan. It is a calculated move to position Sri Lanka as a regional epicenter for innovation, human capital development, and world-class business events.

A Legacy Comes Full Circle

For Founder & CEO Nizam Deen, this isn’t just strategy—it’s personal. From humble beginnings, his journey has evolved into building one of the most influential conference businesses with close strategic partnerships with global government bodies operating across the Middle East and Africa. Now, Sri Lanka is set to become the nucleus of Cogent’s next growth arc.
"Our 2035 vision isn't just about scaling, it’s about defining the future as we prepare for our IPO," said Deen. "Sri Lanka has the talent, the hunger, and the story. We’re here to unlock that potential by building real pathways to global relevance. We are considering our growth as we have expanded into Saudi Arabia and Nigeria and now Sri Lanka, Malaysia, and Thailand are next in the next 6–12 months. Now is the time to take over and scale. This regional expansion is paving the way for our bigger plan: to take Cogent Solutions public with a target valuation of over US$1 billion by 2035."

• Hundreds of high-value jobs across business development, conference production, tech, marketing, and design
• Flagship global conferences and exhibitions hosted in Sri Lanka
• A sustainable talent pipeline connecting Sri Lankans with multinational firms and global mentors

Impact at Scale
