Sri Lanka Convention Bureau and Sri Lankan Airlines will be showcasing the country’s potential for business events in Beijing at the China Incentive Business Travel and Meeting (CIBTM) exhibition in September this year.

Leading airlines now include Colombo as part of their regular schedule and the international and local hotels offer star-class accommodation.”
