Gigabit Internet comes to Kochi's Startup Village

Kochi, Dec 3: Startup Village, the first public-private partnership model incubator in India, jointly promoted by the Central Government's Department of Science and Technology and Technopark, the country's largest IT park, has become the first place in the country to get an Internet connection capable of reaching Gigabit (1000Mbps) speeds, according to various media reports.
 "The new connectivity comes as a milestone in our efforts to ensure the most conducive atmosphere of growth for the increasing number of incubatees. World-class infrastructure facilities will prompt the young companies to perform and meet the global competition," said Startup Village CEO Sijo George Kuvilla.
 "Startup Village aims to build the elements of a world class tech ecosystem to realise the dream of a Silicon Coast in India. The vision at this grandiose scale is driven by one of India's most successful IT entrepreneurs, Kris Gopalakrishnan, co-founder of Infosys and powered by Dept of Science and Technology, Government of India. The Startup Village at Kochi is the first location of this national pilot, which would be replicated to other parts of India in the coming months," he said.
