Originally initiated by Janashakthi Insurance, the event now returns under the leadership of JXG (Janashakthi Group) — Sri Lanka’s emerging financial conglomerate. Reflecting the expanded role of the Group, the initiative makes its comeback as the ‘CIMA – JXG Pinnacle Awards’, in collaboration with AICPA & CIMA Sri Lanka. Scheduled for 11 June 2025 at Cinnamon Life, the awards return after nearly two decades to once again recognise and celebrate excellence, leadership, and innovation across Sri Lanka’s corporate sector.
The awards will span eight categories, including Business Leader of the Year, Chief Financial Officer of the Year, and Young CGMA Star of the Year, recognising outstanding contributions across a range of business disciplines. Each category will present Gold, Silver, and Bronze accolades, acknowledging exceptional performance at different levels. Winners will be selected by an independent panel of judges, ensuring transparency and credibility in the evaluation process.
As a financial conglomerate, JXG sees the awards as a platform to support and spotlight emerging industry leaders and innovative organisations. The revival of the awards aims to celebrate achievements and highlight meaningful contributions to the corporate landscape. Ramesh Schaffter, Managing Director and Group CEO of JXG, and a former Council Member of CIMA Sri Lanka, commented on the initiative: “Our revival of the ‘CIMA – JXG Pinnacle Awards 2025’ reflects our philosophy of celebrating leadership, innovation, and excellence in the ever-evolving business landscape.
By joining hands with AICPA & CIMA Sri Lanka, we aim to reinforce the credibility and prestige of these awards, while also offering recipients an opportunity to elevate their future ventures.”.
