'Net-zero industrial parks, EV zones, green logistics hubs, the Regional Ring Road (RRR), and Metro Phase-2 will give further boost to industrial development. The Future City being developed to global standards will become a world hub for FinTech, Climate Tech, and Smart Mobility innovation. Telangana is witnessing rapid growth in data centers, Global Capability Centers (GCCs), AI labs, and aerospace clusters,' he added. 2.5 times increase in exports from Telangana to UAE Sridhar Babu further informed that over the past 18 months, Telangana attracted over Rs 3.2 lakh crore in fresh investments. 'In the financial year 2024-25, exports from Telangana to the UAE have increased 2.5 times. Pharma, aerospace, digital services, and food processing sectors have played a crucial role. Prominent UAE-based companies like Lulu Group, DP World, and NAFFCO have already made investments in the state,' he noted. He described the investment summit a reunion of old friends. Like the UAE, Telangana values time, trust, and transformation, he added.
