The HinduTaiwanese firm Foxconn Technology Group, a key supplier to Apple Inc., on Monday gave a commitment to the Tamil Nadu government to invest ₹1,600 crore to establish a manufacturing facility in Kancheepuram district. According to a senior government official, this MoU enables Foxconn to support research and development capabilities in partnership with IIT-M for Tamil Nadu to improve the talent pool’s skills and industry readiness to cater to the evolving needs of the electronics industry and share knowledge and best practices in higher-order talent and workforce development. Mr. Rajaa said: “Foxconn’s repeated investments and expansion plans in Tamil Nadu are a testament to the State being the top choice for manufacturing in India for major companies across the world,” and added, “With this proposed investment, and many more to come, Tamil Nadu is poised to not only remain the top electronics exporter in the country but also significantly increase its electronics exports in the coming years. This will play a critical role in attaining our Chief Minister’s ambition of a $1-trillion economy in Tamil Nadu.” The development also comes at a time when Tamil Nadu has become the top exporter of electronic goods in India, with exports nearly tripling during 2022-2023 to $5.37 billion.
