Creative Software

Our Intern Inbound 2026 brought our newest team members together for a day where creativity, collaboration, and a whole lot of laughter took centre stage.

Revolving around the theme "Welcome to Zootopia", our interns engineered gravity-defying spaghetti towers, filmed fun TikToks, channelled their creativity into dramatic acts, and took on team challenges that brought out the best in everyone.

More than just a day of fun, it was the start of new friendships, fresh ideas, and a shared journey ahead.

We recently visited the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Sri Jayewardenepura to deliver a session titled "Ace Your Interview: A 360° Approach to Personal Branding, Grooming and Interview Excellence."

Led by Asma Cader, Director - Marketing at Creative Software, the session offered undergraduates practical guidance on navigating the transition from university to industry, with insights on professional presentation and interview readiness.

Eid Mubarak from all of us at Creative Software! Wishing you and your loved ones a joyful Eid al-Adha. 🌙✨

Most Extended Development Teams don't fail during delivery. They fail in the decisions made before the first developer is onboarded.
For Nordic software leaders, the difference between a partnership that compounds value and one that quietly becomes a cost problem comes down to five upfront decisions.
We've broken each one down.

It was a privilege to present our contribution towards the initiative of expanding educational opportunities through digitalisation to Hon. Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya. We are proud to be a part of the launch of Digital Classrooms for 100 schools across rural Sri Lanka.

When Cyclone Ditwah struck, it didn't just damage infrastructure. It disrupted the education of thousands of children across Sri Lanka.

The employees of Creative Software made a heartfelt decision: instead of celebrating at their year-end party, they chose to contribute the party funds toward something far more meaningful, with the company stepping in to add to that contribution to fulfil our commitment.

Joining hands with Rotary District 3220 and their 100 Schools Programme, we contributed 40 smart boards and 40 computers across 20 schools, a combined investment of LKR 20 million, for students of affected schools across the Uva and Central Provinces.

Our Co-Founder Sushena Ranatunga and Imanka Kodithuwakku, President of the Recreation Team 2025 at Creative Software, represented the Creative Software team, also discussing to extend this collaboration into teacher training and capacity building, because equipping classrooms is only the beginning.

A sincere thank you to the Prime Minister's Office, Rotary District 3220, District Governor 2025/26 Delvin Pereira, Project Chair Prof. Chandana Jayaratne, and the entire team. Your dedication made this possible.

A special acknowledgement to the Recreation Team of 2025 at Creative Software, the hearts behind this initiative (Last image).

Together, we continue to create hope through education, opportunity, and service.

Proud to have our team contribute as evaluators at CodeSprint 11's Envision Stage, Sri Lanka's leading inter-university startup competition, organised by the IEEE Student Branch of IIT, an event we are proud to support as a Bronze Partner.

Our evaluators helped identify early-stage ideas with strong technical foundations and real-world potential. This was another opportunity to go beyond our day-to-day work and support the wider technology ecosystem.
