I dont think Cisco has opened R & D centre in Kolkata .<br /><br />But if Kolkata needs to move up the value chain in IT, we need to attract these companies. The good point is that these companies operate from built-up office spaces and dont opt for land. <br /><br />Oracle should be a pretty easy target. They have opened offices even in Trivandrum.

I am sot sure if this is true or not, but I have read it in one of the English Dailies some months ago.<br /><br />But yes true, Google, Oracle, Microsoft, if WB Govt can pull one of these, getting others will become very easy. It is our reputation that is being the deterrant. I hav also heard that Oracle and SAS had some plans opening Kolkata R&D centre some years back, but they scrapped the plan due to obvious reasons. We need to get their confidence back for good.Debdeep Mukherjeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11443023738456028505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1417381565493975215.post-27904534602363789692012-10-08T22:13:14.666+05:302012-10-08T22:13:14.666+05:30Normally this may not be allowed?

Magical touch of US investments can transform Bengal coastline. However DSDA website needs to be revamped if they want to go back and do a google search and toilet photos need to be removed from project gallery. <br /><br /><br />I am pretty sure you are planning to give a presentation on Finance Hub. Sir, can we have a really professional presentation which can get Kolkata presented as a really compelling upcoming financial hub?<br /><br /><br />Also I thing we should look for the technology sector. US west coast ( California) technology R & D companies are present in huge numbers in Bangalore, Hyderabad and Madras. They are totally absent in Kolkata. These companies are Netapp, VMWare, LSI, Brocade, Cisco , Facebook , Google, Amazon , Microsoft etc to name a few. These companies do not buy land and operate from rented office spaces while employing thousands of people. We can have a special session for these technology R & D companies .<br /><br /><br />Also I think you are going to cover 24 storey VLSI centre (IDC) coming up in Salt Lake. This building can act as a catalyst for investment in Kolkata. Abhishekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07916588056511139433noreply@blogger.com
