The MoU was signed by Mr. Gahanath Pandithage, Managing Director of DIMO, and Mr. Sanath Manatunge, Managing Director of Commercial Bank of Ceylon PLC, in the presence of senior representatives from both organizations.
This landmark collaboration seeks to facilitate specialized student loan facilities and comprehensive financial solutions designed to support youth pursuing technical and vocational education at DIMO Academy.
