Telangana seals ₹2.43 lakh crore investments at global summit.
The Telangana government made a powerful statement on the opening day of the two-day Telangana Rising Global Summit, securing investment agreements worth an impressive ₹2.43 lakh crore. The massive inflow of commitments underscores the state’s growing reputation as a preferred destination for global investors and its renewed push toward an ambitious economic roadmap aligned with its Vision 2047 goals.
According to an official release issued late Monday, the first day of the summit saw an extraordinary level of participation from international corporations, major domestic conglomerates, technology leaders and entertainment industry giants. A total of 35 Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) were signed, reflecting investor confidence in Telangana’s stability, infrastructure, and long-term industrial policies.
The proposed hub aims to combine cutting-edge digital infrastructure with advanced content production capabilities. Officials expect the project to generate thousands of jobs across technology, media, creative arts, engineering, and ancillary services. The initiative marks one of the largest foreign-linked media technology investments announced in India in recent years.
The entertainment sector also saw a major boost with Salman Khan Ventures Industries, owned by Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, committing ₹10,000 crore for a large-scale township and integrated film-and-television studio complex. Planned to be built with international standards in mind, the project will include world-class entertainment zones, production studios, tourism amenities and residential spaces. Industry watchers believe this could position Telangana as a major film-production hub, rivalling Mumbai and Hyderabad’s existing cinematic ecosystem.
The momentum continued with a significant investment proposal from the Brookfield–Axis Ventures consortium. The consortium announced plans to establish a massive global research and development and Deep Tech hub, with a proposed investment of ₹75,000 crore. The hub will be located within the upcoming Bharat Future City, a visionary smart city project designed to serve as a base for emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, quantum computing, space tech, biotechnology, and sustainable innovation.
Officials emphasized that the Brookfield–Axis initiative alone could transform Telangana into one of the leading Deep Tech destinations in the global innovation landscape. The project is expected to attract top international scientists, engineers, and researchers, while also nurturing Indian startups and expanding high-tech employment opportunities in the region.
The government release highlighted that investments were not concentrated in one sector but spread across a wide spectrum — from cutting-edge Deep Tech and space technology, to textiles, entertainment, infrastructure, and manufacturing. This diversity, officials said, illustrates Telangana’s “strong and consistently stable industrial policy,” which continues to inspire long-term investor trust even during global economic uncertainties.
Industries Minister Babu expressed confidence that the commitments received on day one demonstrate Telangana’s rising stature on the world stage. This showcases Telangana’s stable industrial policy to the world,” he said. Babu added that the spirit of the summit reflected a clear message: global investors see Telangana as a state with dependable governance, future-ready infrastructure and a workforce equipped for next-generation industries.
The government believes these investments will play a crucial role in shaping the state’s economic transformation over the next decade. The projects announced span multiple regions within Telangana, ensuring decentralised development rather than concentration in just Hyderabad. This approach is expected to boost local employment, enhance regional infrastructure, and create long-term economic value in tier-II and tier-III towns.
Officials also noted that the Telangana Rising Global Summit is designed not merely as an investment showcase, but as a platform to form deep collaborations between government, businesses, startups, and academia. Panel discussions, technology expos, policy roundtables, and investor networking events are scheduled across the summit’s two-day duration.
As the first day closed on a highly optimistic note, state officials expressed confidence that even more partnerships and investment commitments will emerge on day two. The scale of the announcements already made, however, has firmly positioned Telangana among the leading investment destinations in India and Asia.
With major international players, influential Indian corporations, and innovative tech leaders backing its growth mission, Telangana appears set to accelerate its journey toward becoming a global hub for innovation, entertainment, advanced manufacturing, and sustainable development — exactly the vision the state aims to achieve by 2047.
