**Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh – April 14, 2025** – Andhra Pradesh is aggressively pursuing its ambition to become India’s leading drone hub, leveraging indigenous technology to establish a prominent role in the global drone industry. The state’s AP Drone Corporation is spearheading this initiative, inviting entrepreneurs, industry leaders, and investors to contribute to its development.
The corporation has identified over 100 potential drone applications across various sectors and is actively seeking proposals for innovative uses. A key component of this plan is the construction of a state-of-the-art “Drone City” spanning 300 acres in Orvakal, Kurnool district. Land acquisition and a master plan are already finalized, and the corporation has issued an Expression of Interest (EOI) to attract investors.
Startups, established companies, and individuals are encouraged to submit proposals by April 21, 2025, either online at http://www.apsfl.in/notifications.php or via WhatsApp at +91 79955 11440. This initiative aligns with Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu’s vision to make drone services widely available to both the public and the administration. The ambitious project aims to solidify Andhra Pradesh’s position at the forefront of India’s burgeoning drone technology sector.
