If you ask anyone what they know about Nagpur they will answer ‘oranges.’ Nagpur is the third largest city in the state of Maharashtra and is the largest city in central India. It’s also a pretty low key city and hasn’t quite made it on to the tourist map, which is neither a good nor a bad thing! It means it is still relatively unchanged and unspoiled although it has made its way on to the map as an IT centre, and that always leads to a whole lot of growth and improvement.

Nagpur has a good solid infrastructure and an excellent education system. Nagpur has one of the highest literary rates and over 90% of the population can read and write. This puts them high on the list amongst India’s developed cities and Nagpur is one of the proposed Smart Cities in the Smart City Development Program. The city has been identified as having an excellent public transport system, excellent health care, lots of greenery which is unusual in India, a good quality of living and clean water! Apparently pollution is also pretty low which is unusual for India.

All of this also makes Nagpur a natural selection for IT companies, software designers and IT parks. There are several local companies that have set up Information Technology companies in Nagpur, many national companies and now, a proliferation of multinational companies too. The Mihan & IT Park is large, operating in the Mihan SEZ zone, with companies like Yalamanchili, Ebix, L & T Infinity, HITEC City, Rgen Solutions and so many more, all setting up shop.

If you’re looking for work in IT, Nagpur is an obvious choice. Information Technology is always a huge part of any cities development, especially if they are becoming a smart city. There are always jobs for people with knowledge of website creation or development, and if you have special knowledge in areas such as Corporate Training, a Graphic Design Course, orGraphic Design training your skills are very likely to be in demand.

If you don’t have experience in IT, or you don’t have a certificate, diploma or degree, it is a good idea to get one. If you’re working, or don’t have the means to go to a university, consider doing a course online. Check out www.aceproschool.com as they offer several courses, all of which will be hugely beneficial to you, either immediately or in the future. Information Technology is the way that all businesses whether large or small are doing things, and anyone with knowledge about the digital world, are in demand.

Go and have a look at Nagpur. If you go in summer, the oranges at their most tasty and fragrant. If you go in spring or autumn, you may want to go and see the tigers in the national animal preserves nearby. And if you go all year round, go and have a look at the tech zones, the iT parks and the opportunities that abound.
