The launch highlighted the strength of student innovation and the university\u2019s role in nurturing industry-ready, socially impactful solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding to this achievement, Durokey has gained national recognition, being featured in the <em>Education Today<\/em> newspaper on Sunday, 14 December 2025, a testament to the relevance and real-world impact of this student-led initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking ahead, the student team plans to expand the platform with advanced features to support small businesses in managing their finances and operations more efficiently, further contributing to Sri Lanka\u2019s digital and entrepreneurial ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This achievement reflects the Department\u2019s commitment to empowering students to transform knowledge
