Japanese IT major Fuji Soft Group has proposed to open a centre of excellence in Bhubaneswar. The proposal was made during the Odisha business delegation’s visit to Japan, where chief minister Naveen Patnaik led discussions with major players in the Japanese IT and IT-enabled services sector. The CoE would add to the flourishing IT field in Bhubaneswar, the statement said.
NITKAL (Nihon-UTKAL) has also tied up with the Odisha University of Technology and Research to set up a dedicated skill development centre to cater to the huge demand for a trained workforce in Japan. NITKAL is undertaking a dialogue with IIIT, Bhubaneswar, for establishing a dedicated Japan-centric centre for skill development, it said.
NYK Lines (Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha) has shown keen interest in setting up dedicated shipping lanes from Paradeep, Gopalpur or Dhamra port to transport green ammonia to Southeast Asia and Japan.
Sumitomo Corporation showed interest in creating storage facilities for green hydrogen and green ammonia. They are zeroing in on Gopalpur, which has an SEZ nearby. Patnaik instructed officials concerned to create a roadmap for these investments.
