A trailblazing tech entrepreneur focused on developing high-tech solutions on a global scale, Dr Kulapala has created Sri Lanka’s largest EV charging network with home-grown EV Chargers.
Dr Kulapala said, “We’re excited to be part of this endeavour not only as a technology partner but also as a shareholder of a global enterprise to shape the future of EV charging.
