The agreement was signed in the presence of Shri Nara Lokesh, Honourable Minister for Information Technology, Electronics and Communications, Real Time Governance, and Human Resources Development.

This state-of-the-art innovation campus will serve as a magnet for global enterprises looking to leverage Andhra Pradesh’s rich talent pool and robust infrastructure. The project is expected to generate over 10,000 high-value jobs in the next five years, significantly contributing to the region’s economic development.
“This partnership is a key milestone in our mission to make Visakhapatnam a global tech and innovation hub,” said Shri Katamneni Bhaskar, IAS, Secretary, ITE&C Department.
A Catalyst for the Future of Work
The innovation campus will include:
Advanced workspaces for GCCs and partner ecosystems
Training centers, simulation labs, and immersive tech zones

Strategic Vision Backed by Global Expertise
Lalit Ahuja, Founder & CEO of ANSR, emphasized the importance of emerging cities:
“Visakhapatnam is an untapped goldmine of talent. Our campus will transform this city into a global epicenter for innovation and enterprise transformation.”
Backed by global giants like Accenture and ServiceNow, ANSR will channel international partnerships to fuel client engagement and ecosystem growth in Visakhapatnam.
