Building on a successful partnership in 2023, Lever Ayush, one of the leading Ayurvedic brands in the country, once again served as the Main Sponsor for the International Research Symposium at AyurEx Colombo 2024. Held recently, the event was a premier platform for celebrating and advancing traditional medicine practices.
