The Sri Lankan Trailblazer Story — Our Past. Our Moment. Our Horizon.
From Roots to Possibilities
17 years ago, a handful of Sri Lankans bet their careers on a SaaS platform that almost no one in the country had heard of. Today, that bet has grown into a thriving Trailblazer ecosystem — with MVPs, Hall of Fame members, a Golden Hoodie, Certified Technical Architects, and a community making an impact far beyond its size. In this closing keynote, Tuan Abdeen — Salesforce CTA, traces that journey from the early days of 2009 to the dawn of the Agentic AI era. But this is more than a story of how far we’ve come. It’s a reflection on the moment we’re in, and the choices we make now that will shape the next decade of technology, careers, and the Sri Lankan Trailblazer community.
