Indian state launches plug-and-play workspaces for IT, BPOs

MADHYA PRADESH, INDIA — The state of Madhya Pradesh is set to develop plug-and-play workspaces in the cities of Indore and Bhopal to attract investments from the information technology (IT), information technology-enabled services (ITES), data centers, and Business process outsourcing (BPO) sectors,
These ready-to-move-in facilities aim to provide a seamless setup for companies looking to expand or establish operations in the region.
Collaborative efforts with industry leaders
The Madhya Pradesh State Electronics Development Corporation (MPSEDC) has outlined plans to offer these facilities on a rental basis. The initiative involves close collaboration with industry stakeholders to ensure the infrastructure meets their specific needs.
An official from MPSEDC stated, “The department has floated a proposal to come up with a plug-and-play facility at Bhopal and Indore….We are also working on recommendations of industries for finalising the infrastructure.”
Indore: A growing innovation hub
Indore, already recognized as a hub for industrial and commercial activity in India, is witnessing significant interest from private sector players who are developing similar facilities. The city is home to over 300 registered IT companies and 1000 startups, making it an ideal location for such developments.
In particular, MPSEDC is planning a new plug-and-play facility at the Pardesipura Electronic Complex in Indore. This move is expected to boost the city’s reputation as a prime destination for IT and BPO companies.
Diversifying economic opportunities
Beyond IT and BPOs, the Madhya Pradesh Industrial Development Corporation has also submitted proposals to develop plug-and-play facilities and industrial plots for the textile sector in Barlai, Indore district. This diversification underscores the state’s commitment to fostering growth across various industries.
By providing modern infrastructure tailored to industry needs, Madhya Pradesh aims to position itself as a leading destination for technology-driven businesses. The development of these plug-and-play workspaces is a pivotal step in enhancing the state’s economic landscape.
The introduction of these facilities promises to create job opportunities and stimulate economic growth in the region. As Indore continues to evolve as a technological hub, these developments are expected to play a crucial role in shaping its future.
