If IT offices are also 29 floors then jobs capacity could be even 15,000.

Wonder whether they are trying for SEZ status!

I think Mangalore Internet City, BA Group Thumbe Township, Mohtisham Kannur Township, Goldfinch City together should generate at least 50,000 IT jobs. And Mudipu SEZ, GanjiMatt EPIP, Mangalore Multiproduct SEZ should also generate another 50,000 IT jobs.

I think Mangalore is also suited well for evolving cutting edge technology of subsea or underwater datacenters (2) as it is protected by Karwar Naval base and far way from reach of hostile countries or their naval/air bases. If this is materilized then lot more jobs can be generated in data center services including banking.

IT SEZ in Mangaluru and EPIP in DK

I think it is about existing Mudipu IT SEZ & Ganjimatt EPIP. Nothing new.

Mangaluru MP demands Union IT Minister for IT Park

Mangaluru MP should not forget about election promise of IT Park. He, Mohandas Pai, KV Kamath etc should together visit Ministry of Information Technology and finalize the project. Also demand for 'Pilot project of Underwater Data Center' at Mangalore.

Google is also planning to install data centers on water. Earlier this year, Google patented ships with kites. Google plans to install data centers on these ships. Check this video that shows how these ships work.

Microsoft’s underwater data centers are designed to promote marine life. In fact, Microsoft calls them “artificial reef datacenters”.

It is worth noting that artificial reefs can reduce sea erosion. And help in Marine Pharmacognosy.

Kinfotech Software plot withdrawn by government for slow progress

Let us hope that land will go to a company which is really interested in constructing a IT SEZ.

Women Entrepreneur Park in IT SEZ

So, land meant for IT are getting diverted to other purposes.

Managalore will not have IT Park but will have Common Instrumental Centre

When the parched city already have IT Park why Mangalore should not have one? Is coast is only for stealing water, spoiling with petrochemical, thermal power and desalination plants? What Mangalore MP doing against his election promise of IT Park?

Mangalore to be declared India’s first startup district
Quote:
Earlier efforts to start IT centres in Mangalore were not very successful as there were several issues at the local level. Mangalore South MLA JR Lobo said there were issues with the urban development department and the city municipal corporation.

“Every time an IT company proposes a shift to the tier-II city or an NRI comes up with an idea of giving back to their home town, these projects are welcomed with great fanfare but are never sanctioned as per their original plans. As a result, they are stuck due to bureaucratic hurdles,” he said.

To address these problems specific to the industry, the lawmaker, who is keen to promote the district, has called all stakeholders on to a common platform next month.
