Kelkar IAS, Principal Secretary (Electronics & IT) Technopark is a technology park in Thiruvananthapuram in the state of Kerala, India.

Nayanar laid the foundation stone on 1990 after it was registered under the Travancore Cochin Scientific and Charitable Societies Act.

Technopark has become the single largest source of employment in Kerala,[10][11] with over seventy thousand people directly working in the facility.

Technopark hosts about 470 companies, and a workforce that numbers more than 70,000 personnel, in the IT and ITES sectors: companies such as Allianz–Cornhill, Ernst & Young, Speridian Technologies, Infosys, Guidehouse India, Oracle Corporation, Quest Global, SunTec Business Solutions, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Tata Elxsi, Toonz Media Group, and UST Global,[1] as well as Finastra, H&R Block, IBS Software Services, Nissan Digital, RM Education, Envestnet, Tech Mahindra and RR Donnelly.

The Asian School of Business (ASB) used to have its flagship post-graduate management programme in Technopark, before moving it to its own 16 Acre LEED-certified campus in 2011.

Besides, Technopark provides business incubation facilities for start-up firms as well as some social infrastructure for the personnel working in the park.

Technopark has its own 110kV electric transformer substation and a 25 mega volt-ampere dedicated internal power distribution system with built-in redundancies at all levels.

Technopark has other support facilities such as a satellite earth station, a 200-seater convention centre, a club, a guest house, a shopping complex (Techno-Mall), banks, ATMs, restaurants and conference rooms on campus.

Technopark offers multiple Internet Service Providers, including Reliance Infocomm, STPI, BSNL, Bhari, and VSNL.

FLAG Telecom—a subsidiary of Reliance Infocomm—has its FALCON global cable system at Thiruvananthapuram, providing direct connectivity to the Maldives and Sri Lanka.

[23][24] The Kerala Startup Mission, formerly known as the Technopark Business Incubation Centre (T-BIC), aims to provide economical plug-and-play facilities to start-ups in the IT/ITES fields.

[36][37] iGate (formerly Patni Computer Systems) has already announced that it will set up a Rs 150 crore ($US 32 million) development centre in Phase III.

It involves a mixed use—IT, biotechnology, nanotechnology, commercial and residential development—spread over 500 acres (2.0 km2) of land, about 5 km (3.1 mi) from the present campus.

[41] Once Technocity's land acquisition is complete, Technopark will have an extent of close to 850 acres (3.4 km2), making it one of India's largest IT satellite townships in terms of geographic area, comparable to that of projects like Mahindra World City in Chennai.

[45] Phase IV will also become an SEZ once land acquisition is completed and will provide a range of economic benefits to the companies operating within Technopark.

[46] These include a gym; a swimming pool; and courts for basketball, badminton, table tennis, and beach volleyball.

The club supports tour operators in organising recreational travel of employees and their families; it also has a massage parlour, Vaisakha, and a multi-cuisine restaurant.

[48] Typically held over the course of a week, it kicks off with a Carnival parade and ends with performance by professional bands, dance groups, and musicians.
