He also noted the contributions of the education sector to the industrial development of Tamil Nadu. “One of the biggest reasons for this is job creation; this sector has created large-scale employment for many people,” he added
Thennarasu addressed the gathering at the VELS Trade & Convention Center in Chennai.
The centre, which can accommodate up to 20,000 guests at a time, is one of the largest event venues in Chennai. The facility will host large-scale trade shows, exhibitions, conferences, corporate events, political rallies, award ceremonies, weddings, summits and major cultural gatherings.
“Tamil Nadu’s growth has been driven by our strong infrastructure push. While the state government has played a crucial role in building this infrastructure, the contribution of the private sector is equally vital. Be it education or initiatives like convention centers like this, private participation is vital,” Thennarasu said.
