Andhra Pradesh HRD Minister Nara Lokesh outlined the state's growth strategy centered on speed, service, and stability at the Pan-IIT Summit 2026 in Vijayawada on Saturday.
The government estimated that an integrated horticulture ecosystem centered around an Indian School of Agriculture in Madanapalle can attract investments of nearly ₹1 lakh crore.
Lokesh highlighted major industrial developments, including a 17-million-tonne ArcelorMittal greenfield steel project and the allocation of 300 acres of land to space startup Skyroot.
