Mysuru has been officially designated as Karnataka’s second IT city to decentralize the technology sector and ease infrastructure pressure on Bengaluru. Under a strategic roadmap by the government of Karnataka, the city aims to generate $10 billion in digital revenues and create at least 150,000 new digital jobs by 2030. Mysuru is emerging as a semiconductor and ESDM powerhouse. Other strategic industrial projects include a Cybersecurity Hub, a Rare Earth Permanent Magnet hub, a 230 acre Semiconductor Manufacturing Park, and a new KIADB Aerospace Park. To preserve the city’s unique character, the Silicon Fortress vision balances high-tech growth with heritage preservation, including a ₹10 crore boost for the upgradation of Dasara Exhibition grounds and the conversion of Lingambudhi Botanical Garden into a premier eco-tourism site. Urban infrastructure modernisation & tourism efforts are further supported by: - the formation of Greater Mysuru - ₹675 crore project for Road & UGD infrastructure - ₹490 Crore for city-wide Underground cabling by CESC - a flagship Film City at a cost of ₹500 Crore - A 400-bed to 600-bed (additional 200 beds) upgradation of Jayadeva hospital at a cost of ₹180 crore - Commencing of Peripheral Cancer Hospital - Construction of a 100 bed NIMHANS hospital Further, Through the ₹1,000 crore LEAP initiative, Mysuru intends to scale its startup ecosystem to over 2,800 companies by 2030. All these initiatives will elevate Mysuru from just being a heritage city to the economic powerhouse of the region, driving Karnataka’s digital economy along with Bengaluru. Have no doubt. Mysuru is the Next Big Tech Hub of Karnataka! @anusharavi10 @ashwinmahesh @Maheshbr4U @ChristinMP_ @NavimaneMysore #Mysuru #KarnatakaBudget2025 #CulturalCapital #NextBigTechHub
