Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar and Minister of Large and Medium Scale Industries M B Patil on Friday launched the Airbus India Technology Centre at Titanium Tech Park near Kadugodi, Bengaluru.<\/p>\n

Union Civil Aviation Minister Rammohan Naidu Kinjarapu joined the event virtually.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the launch, Patil said the centre can accommodate more than 5,000 employees.<\/p>\n

He said the facility is the company\u2019s second-largest digital centre and its third innovation centre globally. The centre would contribute to the growth of the aerospace, defence and information technology sectors in the state.<\/p>\n

Karnataka contributes nearly 60 per cent to India\u2019s aerospace and defence sectors. The state has more than 400 aerospace and defence companies, he added.<\/p>\n

Airbus conducts $1.5 billion in annual business with India. About 100 Indian companies are part of the global aerospace ecosystem.<\/p>\n

Referring to aviation projects in the state, the Industries Minister said a helicopter assembly facility at the Vemagal Industrial Area will roll out its first helicopter by mid-2027.<\/p>\n

He also said Bengaluru is expected to get another international airport by 2033.<\/p>\n

The airport will be on a similar scale to Kempegowda International Airport. Naidu assured support for the project. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah announced in the State Budget that a detailed feasibility report will be prepared for the proposed airport, he said.<\/p>\n
