 "Kerala to develop infra at Infopark")
Kerala minister for Public Works VK Ibrahim Kunju today said the state will do the needful to develop roads and other related infrastructure at the Kochi Infopark to further fuel IT sector growth.
The government would soon convene a meeting with the officials concerned in the presence of the chief minister to take necessary steps to renovate and develop roads and other infrastructure near Infopark as a top priority, he said, while inaugurating the valedictory function of Infopark's 10th anniversary celebrations.
Infopark CEO Hrishikesh Nair said the park has attracted over Rs 3,000 crore worth investment and had generated over Rs 2,350 crore revenue in terms of software exports.
Infopark currently boasts of over 4.5 million sft technology workspace. The 100-acre Kochi campus is currently home to over 200 companies, including some of the top names in the industry, such as TCS, Wipro, Cognizant, UST Global among others. The park employs around 24,000 IT professionals.
Infopark has almost finished its Phase I development, with the construction of IT campuses by TCS and Brigade Group nearing completion. Work on the Rs 2,500 crore Phase II project, spread across 160 acres, is expected to be ready for operations by 2020.
