At a press meet in Chennai, R Nandini, the Deputy Chairperson of CII Southern Region announced plans to collaborate with the state government to turn Tamil Nadu into a media, entertainment, and animation hub.

Kamal Bali, the Chairman of the CII Southern Region, stated that CII will collaborate with the governments of southern states to develop state-level policies to drive Manufacturing and Industry 4.0.

Further, he announced that the CII will create a State-level Task Force on Digital Transformation to aid industries in their move towards digitization. This will prepare CII member companies for Industry 4.0.
