The year-long 25 years celebrations of Hyderabad Software Enterprises Association will culminate into a silver jubilee function here on November 30.
"We have planned a grand and befitting silver jubilee celebrations. Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao will attend the function," Ranga Pothula, Hyderabad Software Enterprises Association (HYSEA) chief said in a statement today.
Founded in 1991 by 15 entrepreneurs, HYSEA now has 300 members representing the software industry in Hyderabad, which has achieved Rs 68,000 crore worth of IT exports from the state (in 2014-15).
"HYSEA is also working with the state government to achieve the goal of doubling IT exports from the present Rs 68,000 crore in next four to five years," Ranga said.
The silver jubilee celebrations began in November 2015 and continued for a year.
He said HYSEA played a pivotal role in earning Hyderabad a distinction of being the "IT Destination of India".
"HYSEA has been a key contributor in facilitating the growth of IT Industry in Hyderabad," he added.
KCR will unveil a silver jubilee sculpture to mark the occasion and the sculpture will be later handed over to TSIIC to preserve it at a permanent location, he said.
State IT Minister K T Rama Rao will deliver a silver jubilee talk -- "Government role in catalysing value growth" and will unveil a coffee table book brought for the occasion. It will highlight, mainly through photographs, the 25 years of enabling IT industry in the state," Ranga said.
"We will also launch HYSEA's Silver Jubilee Signature Program -- Disruptive Digital Intervention (DDI)."
The governing board of HYSEA will felicitate Faqir Chand Kohli, in recognition for his significant contribution in Indian IT Industry, it added.
