JB group's proposal is really mouthwatering.
The naysayers of smart city have been proved wrong.

Pramod, KMC
I heard the press conference of JB-Infiniti-ReGenesis consortium
They said 100,000 jobs directly and indirectly in 3 years. Also their plan is on 100 acres of land with 7 million built up space. There are pros and cons to this. The pros are that it takes less space and time. The IT built up space proposed will generate more than
60000 IT jobs.
Cons are as elaborated by KMC. They don't have the tag that TECOM has. Secondly
TECOM has a stronger clientele to rely on.
On other aspect I see is that DIC can also do things at a faster pace.
In the press conference, JB consortium pointed out that the demand-supply mismatch is
going to shoot thru roof in Kochi. So they are confident of generating the stated number
of jobs. These guys who have done market study has understood the boom that is awaiting Cochin.
Finally all these various proposals and hectic parleys have exhibited one thing, vividly -
Cochin is the next
IT Metropolis of the South.
