    All of the companies I quoted have their own brand names that are selling internationally. And they are not mere integrations or 3rd party tools. They are their own fully fledged products engineered in SL. Couple of examples:
    Creately - They compete in the Online diagramming / online workspace niche and they have quite a sizable market share and probably among the top 5 in the world. They are directly competing with Microsoft Visio. Their customer base would have reached around 10 million by now and the customers include high profile clients such as NASA, Paypal, National Geographic, Disney etc.
    WSO2 - They were primarily a middleware company and their products are well reputed in the industry https://wso2.com/casestudies/ebay-u...ess-more-than-1-billion-transactions-per-day/

    I don't understand what you mean by 'a brand that market our island'. When someone engineers a product they would design it to solve a specific problem and would target either a global or a local user base let it be enterprise customers or regular users. Both above examples are products that target a global user base, and have a good market share globally in each of the niches they compete in. And they bring in millions of dollars in revenue. So I dont understand how they are not good examples for the question you asked earlier.
    Good Explanation

    Yes. Agree with you for some facts

    If we can build products with some hardware it could be more visible. For example EV charger of Vega. Both HW and SW is built in lka as per my knowledge ( correct me if wrong)
    That is what im trying to say build something that emboss our country name . rather become spare wheel/ gear box to someone else vehicles

    - Stock trading platforms by MIT (Held the title as worlds fastest stock trading platform for many years. Don't know if its the same now.)
    - CodeGen has a list of product suites (TravelBox) catering travel and leisure domains which are quite popular in the area internationally.
    - And I could recall that SymCentric had a bunch of products in simulation area.
    - CackeLabs (now sysco) created a product suite for restaurants and supply chain management and later acquired by sysco.

    There is no point explaining to this guy man. He is pre occupied with some assumptions and illiterate opinions, and do not want to see beyond that.

    ආසියාවේ ආශ්චර්යය නෑ නේ 🤔

    අපේ විස්වවිද්‍යාල වල උගන්වන්නේ වැටමාර පොලු බස්සන හැටි විතරද?
    Iskola wala igena ganne bimbisara rajjuruwonge kaale wechcha full arthul fairy tales

    I know it's an off-topic. But do you have an idea how these companies started their businesses?

    I mean did they build their product first and then advertise it in foreign countries to find clients, The CEO of the company lived in a developed country for years... so he knew about the market and demand, Did they find a foreign investor and then started the business with him or something else?

    You can read about the origins of Creately here: https://readme.lk/borella-versus-microsoft-the-story-of-cinergix/ . The article is a bit old and Creately is a different product today, but gives a good insight onto how it started out. Disclaimer: I worked at Creately for close to 11 years so my views would be naturally biased towards them.

    WSO2: https://wso2.com/about/ There is a YouTube video on this page which talks about how WSO2 was founded and grew into the company it is today.
