8. Upcoming Projects – Others
Biotechnology Park
• KSIDC is developing a Biotechnology Park/Medicity on a 250 acre
plot about 1 Km North of Technocity
• It will provide space for biotechnology, medical research, medical
manufacturing, pharmaceutical and medical care firms
Telecom City

million Sq.ft. facility for manufacturing telecommunications
equipment at Kazhakkoottam
KINFRA Film and Video Park
• It is already India's first SEZ for Animation and Gaming

10. IT Corridor Infrastructure
• Trivandrum is endowed with a natural alignment of seaport, airport,
rail hubs, IT & knowledge industry clusters and social infrastructure
between Chackai and Thonnakkal on the NH-47
• Immediate steps need to be taken to develop it into a formalised IT
Corridor
• Areas along the IT Corridor needed to be zoned for mixed-
development, to permit commercial, residential and institutional
development along its length
• An increased FAR needs to be provided to encourage growth
• The road needs to be widened to 6 lanes with 2 service lanes
immediately
– By 2014, the road may need to be widened to 8 lanes
• Electricity, water and sewerage facilities need to be developed in
anticipation of growth
• Mass Transit arrangements need to be put in place along the Corridor
– Initially BRTS can be implemented followed by a higher-capacity
system like a mono-rail.
11. Electronics Hardware Sector
• Trivandrum has a strong presence in the sector since the early days of
KELTRON
• Trivandrum posses unique advantages to emerge as a hub of electronics
hardware and semiconductor manufacturing
– Strong R&D presence with institutions like CDAC and NIIST
– Firms like NEST & Tata Elxsi are already active in the field
– Skilled talent pool – engineers and technicians
– Low labour cost
– Strong logistics – Port & Airport
• Key industries may be:
– Hardware assembly
– Semiconductor fabrication, assembly and testing

– Association with related sectors like material sciences, computing
and electronics
• The proposed Biotechnology Park by KSIDC could be the spring
board for development in this sector
• With its unbeatable combination of world-class hospitals and tourist
attractions, Trivandrum could also be a global hub for medical-value
travel and medical outsourcing.
13. Material Sciences Sector
• Trivandrum is home to leading institutions in the physical sciences like
the NIIST and IISER
– It is poised to be the home of a world-class Molecular Sciences
Center for which the State Government will soon allote land
• Material sciences like molecular biology and nanotechnology will be
the biggest growth sectors in a few years from now
• Nanotechnology could be the next big thing after IT and could be a
trillion dollar industry in 10 years
• Trivandrum can provide a R&D base for the new industries and later
become a manufacturing hub
• Material sciences could be made part of the proposed Electronics Hub
by KINFRA
