‘Nexus Innovation Hub’, a 200-seat technology and product development facility was commissioned in Andhra Pradesh’s south coastal district of Nellore on Friday, kickstarting the process of migrating technology companies to Tier II cities.Touted to be the State’s first multi-company innovation park, the hub is already home to 120 technology professionals building AI-powered products for global markets.Member of Parliament (Nellore) Vemireddy Prabhakar Reddy, who formally inaugurated the hub along with Kovur MLA and TDP Polit Bureau member Vemireddy Prashanthi Reddy, Andhra Pradesh Waqf Board Chairman Shaik Abdul Aziz and city Mayor D. Sujatha, stressed the need for the technology firms to look inward towards the hinterland and identify talent available in the vicinity. “Ten years from now, the students of tier-II cities should not leave their homeland for the sake of a career”, he pointed out.Speaking at the inaugural, Renil Komitla, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Terralogic Solutions Inc., recalled his promise made at the launch of Blazeup.ai in November 2025 to get at least 100 technology jobs to the city. A native of Nellore, he had moved to the US in 1998, founded Paxterra Solutions in San Jose, California, which later became Terralogic and emerged into a global firm of 1,300 people across five countries in the next fifteen years.“What began as a single Terralogic office in 2022 in Nellore has now grown into a hub of companies spanning enterprise software, cybersecurity, education technology, healthcare, design and marketing, staffed almost entirely from the local talent pool”, he recalled. The Hub is designed to reach its full capacity of 200 in the next six months.As more start-ups join the ecosystem in Nellore, the broader goal of 1,000 technology jobs will be achieved within two years, he hoped.Prominent among the companies at the hub are ‘Blazeup.ai’, an AI-powered platform for enterprise operations, ‘FlyView.ai’, a unified cybersecurity and AI-governance platform, ‘Smartail.ai’, a platform that automates handwritten student assessments and identifies learning gaps, Vietnam-based ‘DXP Technologies’, a platform for early detection of cancer in clinical settings, ‘Lollypop design studio’ that serves enterprise clients across fifteen countries and ‘Caramelo Studio’, a marketing technology company that brings strategy and content creation together.Published on July 3, 2026
