Aiming to transform Thrissur as the next major IT destination in Kerala, Infopark will soon come out with a special plan to give more impetus to to the growth of its IT Park at Koratty in Thrissur.
Apart from taking up infrastructure development projects, Infopark has decided to focus on attracting major IT companies to the park at Koratty.
The IT park has all that it takes to make it a major IT destination in Kerala-- its proximity to Kochi international airport and the National Highway connectivity are the key attractions.
"We will leverage these facilities to brand position the park and attract major anchor clients", Infopark CEO Hrishikesh Nair said.
While the existing two lakh sq ft workspace at the campus is fully occupied, work on a new 3.3 lakh sq ft IT block with plug and play facilities is at the final stages of construction and is expected to be ready by May this year.
Unlike the IT hotspots in tier-I and tier-II cities in India, the Thrissur Infopark, spread over 30 acres of land in Koratty, offers its employees a congestion-free travel to their workplace.
Currently, the park houses 29 companies with around 600 employees. The facility - set up under the efficient Hub and Spoke model - boasts of a higher employee retention rate as compared to similar parks in other metropolitan cities.
The park has received around a dozen advance bookings for office space at the new building which, when completed, will generate an additional 3,000 plus employment.
