The talent homecoming campaign

Kerala's IT sector is at a pivotal moment. While our state is recognized for its exceptional quality of life and highly skilled workforce, we face a serious challenge: the outflow of our most valuable professionals.

There are an estimated 3 million Malayalis living in other states within India and approximately 2.2 million working abroad. We recognize this serious gap, and we are committed to turning the tide.

Shape

We are putting in active efforts to bring leading Multinational Corporations (MNCs) and global tech players to Kerala. As part of this drive, we have successfully facilitated the setup of 40+ technology companies in recent years.

We are in promising conversations with top-tier companies on a regular basis. While the corporate world highly values Keralite talent, the single biggest obstacle preventing us from bringing the best logos is the sustained availability of industry- ready talent within the state.

We understand that life in many other cities is often suboptimal, and many of you are dreaming of coming back to Kerala to be closer to family and culture.

We know that there are a few factors that matter most to you in making this crucial decision

  • A challenging career with complex projects
  • An enticing package that reflects your true marketvalue
  • Opportunities for career growth

"Thirike" is a mission to solve the talent demand and supply problem that is critical to Kerala's next wave of growth in the technology sector

Thirike is designed exclusively for tech professionals of malayali diaspora currently employed in the IT/ITeS sector outside Kerala, with a desire to move back to Kerala.

"Thirike" is your platform to raise your hand and signal your interest in returning to Kerala.

Here’s how we make the connection

Register Your Interest

We are asking you to fill out this form and express your interest

Creating a Curated Database

Your information will be compiled into a database, segmented based on your specific skill sets, and experience.

Controlled Access for Top Companies

This curated database will be made available to the recruiting teams of the visiting MNCs/GCCs in a controlled and confidential manner.

Connecting You to Opportunities

This direct connection allows us to help them tailor and provide you with excellent in-office or remote roles that meet your expectations for package, growth, and challenge

The spirit of the Malayali community is defined by a powerful sense of unity and an affection for our homeland. We believe this intrinsic connection now aligns perfectly with a period of unprecedented economic opportunity within Kerala.

Kerala is currently home to over 40 Global Capability Centers (GCCs) and is aggressively pursuing increased global investments. We observe a growing trend where successful tech founders of the Malayali diaspora are actively looking to expand their scale and operations within their home state.

Beyond professional prospects, Kerala offers a truly exceptional quality of life. Our region benefits from superior air quality, access to clean water, and increasingly sophisticated urban infrastructure. Intercity connectivity is being revolutionized: the Kochi Metro, Kochi Water Metro, and the upcoming Thiruvananthapuram Metro will ensure seamless travel within major IT hubs. Furthermore, the signal-less corridor development of NH-66 promises to effectively integrate the entire state into a single large city.

With robust air connections offering daily domestic and international flights, coupled with the strategic importance of the Vizhinjam and Kochi shipping terminals, Kerala's intercontinental connectivity for business and travel is excellent.
We firmly believe this convergence of cultural pull, infrastructural maturity, and economic focus presents the optimal time for the Malayali diaspora to transition their careers back to the state.

We urge you to register with 'Thirike' and become part of this movement in Kerala's history.
