The state's Animation, Visual Effects, Gaming, and Comics Extended Reality (AVGC-XR) Policy, 2024, has been approved. The aim of the policy is to make Kerala an ideal destination for business in the fields of animation, visual effects, gaming, and comics extended reality, blending social evolution, artistic heritage, literary expertise, film talent, and skilled workers in state-of-the-art technologies. The government aims to convert the proposed policy into a transformative framework to propel the state forward by compiling the opinions and suggestions of experts, including CEOs of global companies, investors, professionals, academicians, and students. The initiative leverages the combined expertise of agencies such as Kerala Startup Mission (KSUM), KSIDC, KSFDC, Kerala Digital University, C-DIT, Kerala Fiber Optic Network (K-FON), Kerala Development and Innovation Strategic Council (K-DISC), and Kerala Knowledge Economy Mission. The policy aims to create 50,000 jobs in AVGC-XR in the state by 2029 by facilitating at least 250 establishments, including multinational companies. The order approving the AVGC-XR Policy, 2024, holds significant potential for Kerala to emerge as a global AVGC XR hub through its technological expertise and the far-reaching initiatives of the government. https://document.kerala.gov.in/documents/cabinetdecisions//cabinet2203202414:46:24.pdf
