Kochi: Kerala’s Leading IT Hub

Kochi is already home to 2 major IT zones like Infopark and SmartCity. These IT hubs are quite responsible for driving the state’s IT revenue and for having a thriving ecosystem for companies. This new IT/ITES park will also ensure a tailored workspace and world-class infrastructure for professionals. Moreover, it is likely to boost economic growth as well, while allowing the IT professionals to work in a sustainable environment. 

Kochi is one of India’s fastest-growing IT hubs, and this is surely good news. The city is also home to some of the tallest and biggest IT towers in South India. This CIAL’s tender for a 20-acre IT/ITES park in Kochi has clear eligibility criteria and a tight deadline, which makes this already very competitive. However, it has also set the stage for a complete infrastructure boost.
