PR Wire (Pvt) Ltd, in partnership with the Automobile Industry Council, has launched the country’s first Automobile Awards. The initiative aims to recognise excellence and elevate the role of the automobile industry in the national economy.
Organisers say the Automobile Awards will serve as a national platform for industry recognition.
The automotive sector has long contributed to employment, economic growth, and technological development.
Building a National Industry Platform
The awards aim to change how the public, media, and young professionals view the automobile sector.
Through its communications expertise, PR Wire will help strengthen the industry’s visibility and narrative across multiple media platforms.
The initiative has already generated strong attention.
Within two months of its digital launch, the Automobile Awards platform recorded more than 150,000 device clicks from local and international audiences in the automotive community.
Organisers say this organic engagement highlights strong interest from industry stakeholders.
Recognising the Entire Automotive Ecosystem
The platform invites participation from across the industry.
This includes decision makers, employees, vehicle owners, media professionals, and marketing leaders.
According to Ravith Silva, Founder Chairman of the Automobile Industry Council, the goal is to transform how the industry is recognised.
He noted that the council was created to help the automobile sector gain the respect it deserves.
“The Automobile Awards bring together the giants of our industry on one credible platform and celebrate excellence across the sector,” he said.
Driving Industry Visibility
Dominic Perera, Associate Director – Earned & Media Development at PR Wire, said the initiative is designed to become more than a single event.
Instead, it aims to build a communications platform that recognises contributions across the entire automotive ecosystem.
He noted that the strong engagement recorded during the first two months shows the industry’s demand for a platform that celebrates achievement and leadership.
Organisers say the initiative will help strengthen the industry’s visibility, credibility, and long-term growth.
