Andhra Pradesh CM Lays Foundation For 38 MSME Parks At Vijayawada Summit

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu inaugurated the One Family One Entrepreneur MSME Growth Summit 2026 in Vijayawada and virtually laid the foundation stones for 38 MSME parks across the state. The initiative is part of the state government’s wider plan to strengthen the industrial ecosystem, promote entrepreneurship and create more employment opportunities through Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises.

The proposed MSME parks are expected to provide plug and play industrial infrastructure, making it easier for entrepreneurs to establish and expand businesses. According to the government, the parks will support cluster based industrial development and improve the ease of setting up enterprises across Andhra Pradesh.

During the summit, the state government also entered into agreements with companies such as Meta, Amazon and Zoho to promote investment, digital growth and entrepreneurship. These partnerships are expected to help MSMEs improve market access, adopt technology and explore new business opportunities.

More than 1,500 participants attended the programme, including MSME industrialists, PM Vishwakarma beneficiaries, policymakers, representatives from financial institutions and technical experts from across the state. The summit focused on building a stronger support system for entrepreneurs, especially youth, women and rural business owners.

Naidu said the government had already laid foundation stones for 100 industrial parks in the first and second phases, with some of them already inaugurated. The latest launch marks another step in expanding industrial infrastructure across the state.

The Chief Minister also launched Rural Technology Action Group Smart Village Centre Extension centres under the Ratan Tata Innovation Hub in Kuppam, Mangalagiri and Pithapuram. These centres are aimed at encouraging rural entrepreneurship and technology enabled livelihoods.

The government further issued orders releasing ₹200 crore for establishing common facility centres in 45 industrial clusters across Andhra Pradesh. These centres are expected to support shared infrastructure, improve productivity and reduce operational costs for small businesses.

The latest measures underline Andhra Pradesh’s focus on MSME led industrial growth, rural enterprise development and employment generation.
