Over the past several decades, growing numbers of communities around the world have implemented strategies to achieve economic development and growth by promoting technology and innovation. Geographically based places in urban as well as rural regions have been set aside or created to attract research and technology-oriented firms, often in connection with local, university-based research affiliation. Gandhi City is one such R&D Park that envisions to accelerate the region’s growth as a leading-edge technology cluster, and propel it to the forefront of the knowledge economy, creating a high-tech node that complements other such centres in Karnataka and across India.
