BOV Capital, the first Sri Lanka and Singapore-based venture capital fund focusing on Sri Lankan ventures that export technology-oriented products and services, recently led a successful investment round for Omak Technologies, a fast growing regional restaurant management solutions provider with roots in Sri Lanka. 

Having closed the new investment round at Rs. 85 million, Omak Technologies’ new funding is earmarked for an aggressive push across South East Asia.

Well versed in the local field, the founders of BOV Capital have made over 20 investments in Sri Lanka over the last four years, having been instrumental in developing the Sri Lankan entrepreneurial eco-system and, as such, providing valuable advice based on an in-depth understanding of this unique 
working environment.

“With BOV Capital’s focus on investing in not just ventures but also high quality people, Omak Technologies is a natural fit for us. With a smart and dedicated team, and an impressive drive to succeed, it is no wonder that they keep achieving hard-won victories across a number of high-potential Asian territories, particularly Indonesia. I’m sure my partners, Eric Wikramanayake and Rajan Anandan will join me in continuing to push for Omak continued success in the future,” said BOV Capital General Partner Prajeeth Balasubramaniam.
