The Minister was invited to be the chief guest at the summit of Facility Managers organised by decade old Telangana Facility Managers Council (TFMC).

Speaking on the occasion the Minister said that the firm foundation for the IT and ITES industry was laid in 1992 and since then in the past three decades, it has witnessed exponential growth. Over the years a beautiful ecosystem was also developed. We all are proud of our IT Industry. Our government came into power five months ago and in between, we have a poll code of conduct. The Chief Minister of the state Mr. Revanth Reddy has been working 24×7 for the past three months to fulfil the dreams of the people which were not realised during the previous government ruling.

Speaking about the IT industry in the state, D. Sridhar Babu said, we are working to bring the best brains back to Telangana. Our IT industry is at the number two position now and we would like to see it at a number one position. The Y2K Bug was the turning point for the software industry. Now AI (Artificial Intelligence) is another such moment. Chief Minister wants Telangana to take a lead, and it is his vision. We want Hyderabad positioned as the ‘AI capital of India’. It is our earnest desire to see Hyderabad as an AI City. We want to see Hyderabad as the most happening city for AI activity. We would like to see the city as a house for AI research. Who is who of the AI world must work from here, and more and more AI products and services be developed from here. Telangana would like to set up a dedicated Artificial Intelligence City. We have already allocated 200 acres of land to position Hyderabad as India’s ‘AI capital’. The AI City will be a city for tomorrow’s work. We will certainly require the services of TFMC (Telangana Facility Management Council), he added

AI is expected to capture every breadth of human life soon. We would like to take an early lead to be at the forefront of that technological development. Aiming for technology-driven growth, the Telangana government plans to host the AI Global Summit in Hyderabad in July, the Minister revealed. We will see that many AI intellectuals from across the globe take part in the Summit. The Telangana government will absorb AI into its governance, Sridhar Babu added.

Another important step and the most ambitious project we are looking at is the setting up of a Skill University in August this year. It will be on par with the best of the best global institutions. It is going to be another landmark like ISB for the city of Hyderabad. By doing so we would like to fill the gap between industry and academia that exists now. Right now we are finalising the modalities. However, we welcome suggestions, and professional expertise from experts on its constitution, modalities, policy frameworks etc, D. Sridhar Babu said
