The Colombo Centre for Cognitive Computing (CogCom) is a technology-agnostic developer of Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions, focused on ‘optimising human performance through Smart Machines’. CogCom is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Volume Ltd, a UK headquartered global technology and innovation company. Volume established its presence in Colombo in April 2011 and changed its entity’s name in Sri Lanka in 2016, as its leadership in bringing AI-powered solutions to market grew. CogCom currently employs 25 Sri Lankan nationals and also offers opportunities for UK staff to work at the Centre, a new state-of-the art facility in the Orion City Technology Park. Having been a sole technology provider to Volume Ltd, CogCom will open its doors to businesses and public sector organisations in Sri Lanka and the Asia-Pac region. Partnership and growth is the focus for the business and collaboration with Sri Lankan-based companies is key to striving this strategy. CogCom will also be working closely with the many high quality IT-focussed universities in the country to help develop AI-focussed curricula and to mentor young and emerging talent.
