Kochi marked a historic moment with the grand inauguration of the Lulu IT Twin Towers, now officially the largest IT complex in South India. Spanning 2.5 million square feet of state-of-the-art office space, the Twin Towers have the potential to directly employ over 30,000 skilled professionals, giving a massive boost to Kerala’s fast-growing tech economy. This launch represents a significant milestone for the state's vision of creating world-class technology hubs and aligns with its broader strategy of driving employment, innovation, and digital transformation.

Kerala’s IT Growth Story Continues to Soar

The new Twin Towers come at a time when Kerala’s IT sector is scaling new heights. Across Technopark, Infopark, and Cyberpark, the state currently employs nearly 1.5 lakh professionals, with more than 66,000 new tech jobs created since 2016. The Lulu IT Twin Towers further reinforce Kochi’s rising status as an IT powerhouse in the region, drawing in global and domestic tech companies looking to leverage Kerala’s skilled workforce and supportive infrastructure.

Building a Complete Innovation Ecosystem

Kochi’s transformation isn’t limited to IT parks alone. The city is rapidly evolving into an innovation hub. A prime example is the India Innovation Centre for Graphene, a first-of-its-kind initiative established by the Digital University of Kerala and the Centre for Materials in Electronic Technologies (CMET). To further scale up graphene-related industries, the state government has proposed the ambitious ₹98.85 crore Graphene Aurora Project, poised to unlock new industrial opportunities in advanced materials technology.

Supporting these developments are other major initiatives such as

1. The ongoing development of Infopark Phase 2.
2. The Kerala Startup Mission Digital Hub in Kalamassery.
3. Robust connectivity infrastructure, including Cochin International Airport, Kochi Metro Rail, and the innovative Water Metro.

Kerala’s tech journey thrives on strong public-private partnerships. Industry leaders like LuLu Group India and its Chairman Shri MA Yusuff Ali, have played a pivotal role in advancing this vision. The Lulu IT Twin Towers are a shining example of how visionary leadership and government collaboration can transform Kochi into a global destination for advanced technology industries.
