New technology support for MSMEs: The new Technology Centre at Devanahalli, Bengaluru, will give MSMEs in the Electronics System Design and Manufacturing (ESDM) and aerospace sectors access to advanced machinery and technical facilities. These include design, prototyping, production, testing, training, and consultancy services.

The ₹156-crore centre is expected to train around 10,000 trainees every year and help MSMEs adopt advanced technologies and improve their technical capabilities.

Entrepreneur takeaway: This is particularly relevant for Karnataka MSMEs that need to develop prototypes, use advanced manufacturing equipment or upgrade their technical capabilities without having to set up all these facilities in-house.
