#Karnataka government is working towards introducing a new IT policy which will create more jobs in Karnataka. Not just businesses, but the government will also bring revolutionary changes in primary and secondary education. Over 100 CEOs of leading IT, semiconductor, electronic and biotech organisations met with the Dy.CM @DKShivakumar in a closed door meeting. Collaborative economy is the way forward. Government is reaching out to private enterprises to help them grow and bring prosperity to people by generating jobs. Karnataka is not just looking for employees and workers, it is looking for job creators. Karnataka is already seen as a State where one is certain to get a job and build a career. There is no doubt that our state will become the employer’s home soon. 34% of the population of the state is in Bengaluru. Technology has the power to reduce disparities, improve the standard of living and inspire sustainable development.  Karnataka can lead the country’s digital future and Bengaluru has the potential to rank number one in IT/BT exports . CM @siddaramaiah is ensuring that his Government will meet and surpass every single target that it has set for the development of the State.
