Kochi Infopark CEO Hrishikesh Nair quits

Kochi: Infopark Chief Executive Hrishikesh Nair has relinquished office after completing his three-year tenure during which the state government-owned Information Technology park witnessed an all-round growth.

Dispelling rumours that the change of government in Kerala was the reason for his resignation, Nair said he had sent his resignation letter to the IT Secretary in April and was serving on notice period.

He said he would join a private IT firm next month.

"I have nothing to do with the government. In fact, I had got a wonderful opportunity to make a presentation before Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan about the activities being undertaken in Infopark. He was absolutely happy," Nair said.

Nair said that during his stint as Infopark CEO from July 13, 2013, Infopark witnessed buoyant growth in all sectors, including employment generation and infrastructure development.
