Unveiling India’s Tech Genesis: Where did it all begin?

It is Technopark Thiruvananthapuram, the first IT Park in India.

Technopark’s story began in 1990, a visionary project spearheaded by the Kerala government. It quickly blossomed into one of the largest and most eco-friendly IT parks not only in India but also under state government ownership. With over 480 IT and IT-enabled service (ITES) companies housed within its expansive 766.86 acres, Technopark is a bustling ecosystem of tech giants and rising startups alike.

In addition to its impact on the IT sector, Technopark has played a crucial role as a facilitator for innovations in the construction industry, particularly in CAD and BIM technologies. Numerous companies, including Eurasia, Grid Engineering Services, and Eco White, have operated from Technopark Trivandrum, serving a diverse clientele worldwide.


In August 2017, amidst global discussions on BIM and Digital Construction within industries, the initiation of the BIMLABS professional training institute in Kazhakkoottam marked a confident venture into diverse BIM subjects. Shortly thereafter, BIMLABS entered into a partnership with Autodesk, aiming to integrate their technology and datasets for educating academia about the numerous career opportunities and socio-economic benefits on a global scale.

Since its inception, BIMLABS has established itself as a finishing school, ensuring a minimum of three interviews for its students and instilling the confidence to navigate the global market. Acknowledged by the industry, BIMLABS has collaborated with Arth Design Build Hyderabad and Robert Design Services India for initiatives focused on capacity-building in 2018.

In 2019, BIMLABS organized a pioneering BIM Summit, the first of its kind held at Trinity College of Engineering, followed by numerous placement drives. In 2022, the institute hosted a national-level conference in Thiruvananthapuram with the theme of Employability in Digital Construction. With its registered office in Kazhakkoottam, BIMLABS has assumed a leadership role in the field.

BIMLABS took on a leadership role among training institutes by playing a crucial part in formulating training programs tailored to industry job roles and disciplines. This approach differs from the traditional institute training that predominantly focuses on CAD software, often referred to as “buttonology.”

Over the past six years, BIMLABS has successfully onboarded numerous key companies as clients, forging partnerships with prominent organizations such as L&T, Tata Steel Structures, and several leading BIM service providers. Placement collaborations have been established with esteemed partners like Eurasia Technopark, Grid Engineering Services Technopark, YSC Engineering Technopark, Taaltech, DDG BIM Services, and many others.


With over 5 years of experience within BIMLABS, Mrs SOUMYA SANTHOSH has been a key figure in driving BIMLABS’ industry engagements. As a seasoned student counsellor and leader, she has evolved alongside BIMLABS’ global journey, acquiring in-depth knowledge of the BIM market and industry trends.

In 2022 Bimlabs was selected as the outstanding Bentley training service provider in APAC and the contribution from BIMLABS Kazhakkoottam with the leadership of Soumya was very crucial.

Leading BIMLABS Kazhakkoottam, Soumya, alongside her team of seasoned academicians and industry-acknowledged technical experts, ensures an enriching learning and career development experience for both students and professionals.
