Dholera is one of the eight smart city industrial zones, being developed in the first phase of the DMIC, with a total footprint of over 920 sq km. Infrastructure implementation in Dholera special investment region (SIR) is taking place in a phased manner, with an activation area of 22.5 sq km developed in the first stage. Other sectors the SIR is looking to attract include IT, electronics, bio-technology and food processing, having been designed with plug-and-play infrastructure and sustainable and green social infrastructure.

European aviation giant Airbus has signed an MoU for a strategic partnership, which entails assessing the Dholera SIR region and providing inputs on the requirements and infrastructure specifications, particularly for developing an ecosystem of suppliers for the assembly, testing, delivery and maintenance of rotary and fixed wing aircraft, including naval utility helicopters.
