Then it went into stealth mode till 2004, when the former Nokia CEO, Jorma Ollila, chose Sriperumbudur over Bangalore, Hyderabad and Delhi. There was no stopping the flow that was coming in to turn this sleepy village into a bustling global manufacturing hub.


Today, it has become a high-tech manufacturing cluster with more than $2 billion having been invested in the special economic zones where not only handset manufacturers but other electronic component makers such as Flextronics, Foxconn, Jabil, Perlos, Salcomp, Aspocomp as well as PC makers such as Dell have set up manufacturing facilities for millions of mobile phones, chargers, set-top boxes, PCs and telecom base stations.
