Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Friday announced the launch of Space City in Tirupati, positioning the state as a major hub for next-generation technology and innovation.

“In the last one year, we have mobilized 100 billion US dollars of investment to Andhra Pradesh. Next month, Google is coming, TCS is already here, and Cognizant is also joining. With these developments, Visakhapatnam will soon surpass India’s total existing data center capacity within one or two years," he said.

He further highlighted state’s technological vision, and added,"America has Silicon Valley and now India has started Quantum Valley. The first quantum computer will operate from Amaravati by January 1st, making us the sixth country to use quantum computing."

On space technology, Naidu said Andhra Pradesh will no longer be a spectator to global space milestone, adding that India will soon launch “private satellites from our Space City".

“Earlier, we used to admire space achievements on TV. Now, we are creating Space City near Tirupati. Just like America has SpaceX, we will soon launch private satellites from our Space City."

These two space cities are aimed at attracting investments of Rs. 25,000 crore and creating 5,000 direct jobs and 30,000 indirect jobs. These projects are designed to put Andhra Pradesh at the forefront of the global space economy and provide plug-and-play infrastructure to startups and private companies.

On this occasion, Chandrababu Naidu reiterated that his government is committed to making Andhra Pradesh a golden Andhra Pradesh.
