Kozhikode, Kerala: Kerala Minister of Industries and Law, P Rajeev, recently shared a new transformative step in the IT ecosystem in Malabar, giving a fresh boost to the start-ups in Malabar. Sandbox, a company with a strong presence in Kerala’s tech ecosystem, is all set to build a mini tech park at the Government Cyberpark in Kozhikode.

The proposed facility would also provide a common space for collaborative discussions and idea generation between companies. The project envisages accommodating no less than 600 people, and it will be one of Kerala’s early privately developed mid-scale tech-park projects aimed at start-ups, small enterprises and individual professionals.

The employees will have modern infrastructure, recreation centers, cafés, and breakout zones.
