Why it matters
State-led industrial infrastructure development is a key driver for regional economic growth and gender-inclusive entrepreneurship.
The Tamil Nadu Small Industries Development Corporation Limited (Tansidco) would soon promote two new industrial parks for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) at Suriyur on the outskirts of Tiruchi.
One of the two parks will be exclusively for women entrepreneurs and other one will be for entrepreneurs engaged in manufacture of medical equipment.
The TANSIDCO has taken possession of 30 acres assigned to it by the Revenue Department at Suriyur, according to sources in the organisation. Of this, the industrial park for women entrepreneurs would be developed on 10 acres at a cost of ₹3.13 crore and the medical technology park on five acres at a cost of ₹2.06 crore.
“We will soon begin developing necessary infrastructure for the women’s park and the park for units manufacturing medical equipment. It could take about three to six months to develop the infrastructure,” sources in SIDCO said.
