As the world continues to adopt a decentralised way of working that was mainstreamed during COVID-19, it is predicted to come in many forms – from people working independently from their homes to multinational companies setting up centres outside metro cities to tap into its burgeoning talent pool.
Another shift increasingly seen today is the growing focus on digitisation across sectors and even the so-called traditional sections like banking and transportation don’t seem to be immune to this change. These two trends in tandem bode very well for India’s tech-ready talent base and are expected to catalyse the emergence of numerous new tech hubs in the country – this time in its many Tier 2 cities.
This report aims to serve as a reference for technology businesses (and the governments inviting them) looking to set up or expand operations in these emerging cities take informed decisions, and thereby gain a competitive edge in the market while also contributing to the growth story of India.
