Date:

By: Staff Writer

April 29, Colombo (LNW): Originally initiated by Janashakthi Insurance, the prestigious awards event makes a grand return, now under the leadership of JXG (Janashakthi Group) — Sri Lanka’s emerging financial conglomerate.

Reflecting the broader role of the Group, the awards re-emerge as the ‘CIMA – JXG Pinnacle Awards’, in collaboration with AICPA and CIMA Sri Lanka. Scheduled for 11 June 2025 at Cinnamon Life, the awards mark a revival after nearly two decades, once again celebrating leadership, innovation, and outstanding corporate excellence across Sri Lanka.

The revitalised Pinnacle Awards will feature eight distinct categories, including Business Leader of the Year, Chief Financial Officer of the Year, and Young CGMA Star of the Year. Each category will offer Gold, Silver, and Bronze awards, recognising excellence at different levels. An independent panel of judges will oversee the selection process, ensuring fairness, transparency, and credibility.

As a leading financial conglomerate, JXG views the awards as a platform to encourage and spotlight emerging industry leaders and innovative organisations. The event aims not only to celebrate achievements but also to highlight meaningful contributions that continue to shape Sri Lanka’s corporate landscape.

Speaking on the event’s revival, Ramesh Schaffter, JXG Managing Director/Group CEO and a former CIMA Sri Lanka Council Member, stated:

“Our revival of the ‘CIMA – JXG Pinnacle Awards 2025’ reflects our philosophy of celebrating leadership, innovation, and excellence in the ever-evolving business landscape. By joining hands with AICPA and CIMA Sri Lanka, we aim to reinforce the credibility and prestige of these awards, while also offering recipients an opportunity to elevate their future ventures.”

Echoing this sentiment, Tharindu Wijewardana, Acting Country Manager of AICPA and CIMA Sri Lanka, added:

“Through the renewal of our partnership with JXG, we anticipate a promising step forward for Sri Lanka’s professional community. These awards are designed not only to recognise excellence but also to reinforce the values of professionalism, ethical leadership, and performance in practical contexts.”

Previously, the Pinnacle Awards held a significant place on Sri Lanka’s corporate calendar, honouring individuals who later rose to key leadership roles across industries. Past awardees include distinguished professionals such as Hasitha Premaratne (Group Managing Director, Brandix), Suren Fernando (Group CEO, MAS Holdings Ltd), and Mahesha Amarasuriya (Director, Mastercard Sri Lanka).

Applications are now open. Professionals and organisations interested in participating are encouraged to submit their entries via the AICPA and CIMA Sri Lanka website at: AICPA and CIMA JXG PINNACLE AWARDS 2025 | Advocacy | AICPA and CIMA.

The event is also expected to serve as a vital platform for networking and knowledge-sharing among corporate leaders and professionals across diverse industries.
