The Hubli-based Karnataka Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI) will launch a drive to attract potential investors in information technology and BPO to invest in Hubli.
 
A delegation, possibly headed by IT tycoon Gururaj Deshpande, will meet investors from Bangalore, Mumbai, Hyderbad, Pune and from abroad to enlighten them on Hubli's infrastructure.
 
KCCI president Shankaranna Munavalli told reporters here on Monday that the one-stop strategy includes providing information on the infrastructure available, support for setting up units, help to get clearance and setting up joint ventures.
 
Convener of IT committee of KCCI Santosh said that Wipro will be provided land to set up its campus, if it so wished. He said that compared to Mysore and Mangalore, Hubli was a better place for setting up IT and BPO units as the city has connecting flights.
 
Moreover, there are a number of quality educational institutions and a large number of talented students. The drive will be launched soon, he added.
