LNBTI and Yamaha: Forging Future Collaborations in IT

On October 24th, LNBTI had the privilege of welcoming representatives from Yamaha Corporate Services Japan. The purpose of the visit was to explore the potential for a deeper partnership with LNBTI to meet Yamaha Corporation’s future human resource needs. Yamaha holds a unique position in the global market with a significant share and loyal fanbase in both the motorcycle and musical instrument industries. During the visit, the delegation engaged in insightful discussions with LNBTI’s management, academic staff, and students, gaining a comprehensive understanding of how LNBTI is preparing Sri Lankan students for professional careers in the Japanese IT industry. The Managing Director of Metatechno Lanka also participated, highlighting the growing anticipation of a strengthened collaboration to prepare Sri Lankan engineers for upcoming Yamaha projects.The delegation emphasized the critical importance of proficiency in both the Japanese language and IT skills for securing high-tech jobs in Japan’s IT sector. They also shared how Yamaha has built its substantial global market share by consistently delivering high-quality products, driven by an acute sensitivity to customer aspirations and by engaging in extensive research. This approach has paved the way for the company’s long and successful journey, which will be an inspiring story among the young minds of LNBTI.Additionally, Yamaha Corporation generously offered to collaborate with LNBTI in training undergraduates on specific workplace skills relevant to the company, as well as broader standards and expectations in the Japanese IT industry. LNBTI is currently exploring the possibility of incorporating this initiative into its formal career development programs. Prof. Hewagamage, LNBTI’s Academic Advisor, outlined the current academic model and discussed how it could be aligned with industry expectations to produce highly competent professionals in the future.

LNBTI Students Gain International Experience through Internship Program in Japan

A select group of LNBTI students recently participated in a training program organized by JASA, with the top four performers awarded internships at leading IT companies in Japan. During a visit by the Vice Chancellor, the students shared their experiences and highlighted how their work ethic and professional behavior had been shaped by Japanese practices, including punctuality, responsibility, and attention to attire. They were particularly impressed by Kyoto Station’s modern architecture and the affordability and quality of local food, such as the ramen, which they found both delicious and reasonably priced—challenging their initial perception of Japan as an expensive country. The students also spoke highly of the supportive and collaborative environment at their internship companies, where they anticipate receiving full-time job offers upon completion of their degrees. Moving forward, LNBTI plans to make this training program an annual initiative, offering top-performing students similar opportunities to gain valuable international work experience. These students, as part of the new “Study in Sri Lanka, Work in Japan” model, represent the first cohort to benefit from this initiative, paving the way for future career prospects in the global IT industry.
