Headed up by Tavistock executive Hayley Evans, the Elovate Group combines the experience, know-how and culture of excellence of each individual company to unite under their new corporate identity.

We believe the Elovate Group will be a dynamic provider of exceptional solutions in the global technology space.” Ms. Evans stated.

With access to the diverse Tavistock portfolio, the Elovate Group will provide local talent the opportunity to engage clients from around the world and be exposed to a variety of industries.

“Having searched the world for exceptional talent in this space we believe that we have found something that is extraordinarily unique and valuable in the resources in Sri Lanka and we are excited to expose these to a global stage.” said Ms. Evans.

The Elovate Group leadership team consists of Hayley Evans, Tavistock; Matti Hiob, CEO Atlas Labs; Presantha Jayamaha, Founder and Director Pyxle; Amila Jayatilaka, Founder and Director Trabeya; and Bhanuka Harishchandra, CEO Surge Global.
