From bold beginnings
to a global IT partner.
SoftSora didn't start with a pitch deck. It started with a handful of small, exacting projects for a business in northern Japan — and the decision to be judged on getting hard things right.
The beginning: a vision sparked in Hokkaido.
Our story starts in 2022, when founder and CEO Nilan Meegoda partnered with a B2B company in Hokkaido, Japan. What began as a collaboration on a few small but ambitious projects quickly revealed a shared commitment to quality and innovation.
Those early successes laid the groundwork for what would become SoftSora — and set the standard the company still holds itself to today.

Official launch & stronger leadership
Fueled by that early momentum, SoftSora was registered as a private limited company in April 2023. Mohammed Rishard joined as CTO and co-founder, bringing a new dimension of technical leadership, and the first office opened in Colombo.

Growth, partnerships and new horizons
We grew the team, deepened international partnerships, and broadened the offering to advanced software, AR/VR and 3D. By focusing on client success and technical excellence, we completed 30+ projects for 20+ clients across local and overseas markets.

A dynamic team, a global vision
