Initiatives of the State Government

Setting up of Software Technology Park

Efforts have been made by the State Government to set up the Software Technology Park of India, Shillong Centre. In this connection, the first step undertaken by the State Government is the identification of a suitable location to host the STPI in Shillong. It is expected that this exercise would be completed soon. The Government of India has already sanctioned an amount of Rs.50 Lakhs towards procurement of High Speed Data Communication (HSDC) facilities for the STPI at Shillong. An additional amount of Rs.1.00 Lakh was provided by the State Government to the STPI for a Detailed Feasibility Project Report regarding setting up of STPI facilities at Shillong. The Software Technology Park at Shillong is expecte d to cater to the local Software Exports, IT Enabled Services, Call Centres and other IT related activities. It is therefore a matter of utmost importance that the local entrepreneurs keep interacting with the Department by way of feedback information, suggestions and active participation in IT Forums and such arrangements, which would be provided by the Department from time to time

Setting up of other Technology Parks:

NEDFi established a at Guwahati to host various activities such as IT Enabled Services, Call Centres etc. NEDFi informed the State Government that most of the manpower in these activities come from Shillong. As a result, NEDFi feels that they need to set up another Software Technology Park in Shillong. The State Government is keeping its door open for detailed discussion with NEDFi on this proposal.STPI’s Survey Questionnaire
