A visionary leader who founded a company with just 12 members at a time when establishing a software company in a country like Sri Lanka seemed unthinkable, now has offices all over the world and an employee base of about 700. That leader is Sanjeeva Weerawarana, CEO and Founder of WSO2. He recently appeared on our latest ‘Senasuru Athurudahan’ podcast. This is a must-watch podcast for anyone dreaming of becoming an entrepreneur. If that's you, join Neon

Great podcast!
- cool to know he started WS02 at 38.
- Pleasantly surprised with the answer that he wouldn't have sold if it was his decision & he would have grown the company more!
Truly grateful to have you as my client. As a fellow entrepreneur I wish to build something as big as you have and most of all stay as humble as you are. Cheers Sanjiva !
Good knowledgeable presenter who has done his homework.
Absolutely. Steering the discussion really well. 👍👍👍
Great Questions. Hats off 👒
Thank you for this!

Superb Convercation. Thank you so much for this valuable video
Great discussion
Fabulous discussion!! So much to learn, think and implement!!
Super discussion !
Amazing discussion
Fruitful discussion
A valuable and positive conversation. Avinya Foundation has hidden learning patterns that are not often seen in our common society. I'm very thankful to Mr. Sanjeeva Weerawarana and those lecturers and your concept.
Thank you very much. Learned a lot . ❤❤❤
patta program ekak .Great discussion . But i think a diamond like wso2 is better than that. 600mill isnt a big deal in this global industry. Just nearly 8 10 oil ships for SL. I would say its an early exist. Sanjeewa’s little baby girl was married off just after she hits puberty.
Great discussion..
Thank You
ඉතා වටින අදහස් ටිකක්🫡🫡🫡
Valuable content❤❤
To become a successful entrepreneur, a bit of stubbornness is essential.
Superb Conversation..
36:36 Exactly! This idea should be internalized. People don't think outside the box because of such deeply rooted cultural perspectives.
Wow! This program is fantastic 💪
Valuable discuss ✨🔥
Thank you....
Great talk! Hmm, I was thinking about our entire academic system. I don't think undergraduates have challenging problems to solve during their final year theses/projects. If industry and academia work together to create more challenging problems for them, there will be more product companies in the future. What I have seen is that our programmers know how to use frameworks (let's say services) but not how to invent frameworks (products).
Good Discussion Sanjeeva Aiya. Not sure, if you remember, i met you in 2005/2006, while you guys were in the Incubator in Metro Tower, and i was a undergrad back then. :D You have come long way. Good luck with the future plans.
excellent discussion
Amazing story.. Amazing personality..🤝

Dr Sanjiva has always been an exemplary leader, coach and motivator. If we had a few more people like him in Sri Lanka, all our problems will fix themselves given some time.

කාටහරි මේ ක්රියාවලිය පැහැදිලි කරන්න පුලුවන්ද. දැන් මෙතුමාට මේ ආයතනයේ හිමිකාරිත්වයක් නැද්ද. ආදායම එන්නෙ ඒ විදේශ සමාගමටද? ලංකාවට කිසියම් හෝ ආදායමක් එනවද?
Dan exist wela iwarai eka nisa meyata aye income enne na oya company eken
He gets an income because he is still the CEO of the company
He may get a small share and a salary.
(They say slice of melon is better than a full grape)
දැන් මෙතුමාට මේ ආයතනයේ හිමිකාරිත්වයක් නැද්ද?
එය එතරම්ම අදාල ප්රස්නයක් නොවන්නේ, ඔහුට කොහොමත් හිමිකාරිත්වය තිබ්බෙ 5% ක් වැනි ප්රමාණයක් නිසා. ලාබ ඉපයීමට වසර පහලොවකට ආසන්න කාලයක් ගතවීම කියන්නේ සාමාන්යන් තම හිමිකාරීත්වය ආයෝජන වලට විටෙන් විට හුවමාරු කර ගෙන (තම හිමිකාරිත්වය අඩු කරගෙන ) එදිනෙදා වියදම් වලට අවශ්ය අරමුදල් ස්පයා ගැනීමයි. මෙය ඉතාම සුලබ දෙයක්.
ලංකාවට කිසියම් හෝ ආදායමක් එනවද?
සේවකයන්ගේ පඩි/වේතන, ලංකාවේ කාර්යාල කුලිය, ලන්කාව තුල කරන වියදම් ආදිය (සහ මේවා ආශ්රිත බදු ) ලංකාවට ලැබෙන ආදායම් ගනයේ ලා සැලකිය හැකියි. මෙහෙයුම් සුපුරුදු ලෙස ලංකාවේ කරගෙන ගියහොත්, ලංකාවට එතරම් අවාසියක් මගේ දැනුමේ හැටියට නැහැ.
According to conventional wisdom, he owns 5% of a $600 million company. Investors may increase its value to $1 billion or $2 billion over the years, making his 5% stake more valuable. Not only him, but other employees who own a very small percentage will also see their shares become more valuable.
For WSO2 to achieve this growth, the company must bring more revenue to the country.
