MTI and Hilton to improve business journalism

MTI Consulting and the Colombo Hilton have teamed up to improve business journalism in Sri Lanka, with the launch of the MTI-Hilton Business Journalism Forum. This will be a monthly thought leadership forum at which MTI will engage the business journalist on a diverse range of business management challenges and opportunities.

"Sri Lanka is experiencing an unprecedented economic growth phase, which is translating into business opportunities and challenges. Being at the heart of this growth story, we in the hospitality industry, felt that Hilton needs to support this much needed initiative to improve standards of business journalism," said Hilton GM Manesh Fernando.

"With hands-on consulting experience and thought leadership work in over 40 countries and across a diverse range of industries, MTI will 'translate' these learnings to improve business journalism in Sri Lanka via these monthly fora on contemporary topics," said MTI, CEO Hilmy Cader. Hilton welcomes guests in more than 540 hotels and resorts in 78 countries across six continents. MTI is an internationally-networked boutique management consultancy that enables clients to 'analyse and strategise and realise' profitable business opportunities.
