A new vision for 2022 has been developed with the following targets: growing revenue to USD 5 billion and creating 200 000 jobs. Sri Lanka's goal is to move up the value chain, shifting from a focus on cost to one based on value. For this purpose, the IT sector has constructed its strategy around three targets: 1) building capacity by tripling the number of IT graduates by 2020 (there were only 6 000 graduates in IT and related fields in 2015), 2) innovating by encouraging the creation of 1 000 start-ups and promoting links between academia and the private sector, and 3) fostering regional development by taking the IT/BPM industry to the regions, promoting linkages with universities.
