About Arimaclanka

Arimac Lanka, operating as arimac.digital, is a digital solutions provider founded in 2011 by Chamira Prasad Jayasinghe and Chinthaka Sandaruwan. What began with freelance coding jobs by the founders during their university days has evolved into a company with a global presence, including offices in the UAE, Australia, Fiji, and the Caribbean Islands. Jayasinghe, the current CEO, holds a First-Class Honours Degree in Computer Science and has a background in developing brain-computer interfaces and human-computer interactions. The company was bootstrapped for its first six years, relying on revenue from its projects before securing its first investment from venture capitalist Nimal Perera in 2017, followed by a second funding round in 2019 from the Emerald Zephyr Fund.

Arimac operates across several key business verticals: enterprise mobile and web solutions, immersive technologies (AR/VR), artificial intelligence and robotics, and game development. Its revenue model is centered on providing these end-to-end digital services to a diverse client base that includes major corporations in telecommunications, banking and financial services (BFSI), fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), and aviation. The firm has developed solutions for prominent international and local companies such as Etihad, Emirates, Visa, Ooredoo, Microsoft, Unilever, and Dialog Axiata. Arimac's business strategy involves using its enterprise solutions as a primary cash flow source to fund its more ambitious 'moonshot' projects in areas like gaming and animation, which also serve as research and development investments.

The company's service offerings are extensive and tailored to client needs. For the financial sector, its FinSpace suite includes mobile wallets, payment aggregators, and smart banking solutions. In telecommunications, TelcoSpace provides platforms for customer engagement and digital entertainment. AirSpace is a solution designed for airlines to manage crew and passengers. Arimac has also developed a strong reputation in game development, having created Sri Lanka's first 3D video game, "Kanchayudha," and the hyper-casual gaming platform "IMI Club". Their projects often begin with a design anthropology workshop to ensure solutions are human-centric. Notable projects include developing the AIA Customer Portal, a mobile-based loyalty platform for Etihad, and a virtual reality cricket game called "Super Over".
