DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES
INDUSTRIAL CORRIDOR
An industrial corridor integrates industry and infrastructure effectively, leading to overall economic and social development. ADM envisages industrial Corridors as a Model Corridor of international standards with emphasis on expanding the manufacturing and services base. Particularly, usage of disruptive methods, strategies and technologies set the ADM Industrial Corridors apart. Such corridors focus on and actively empower opportunities in lower end of traditional manufacturing spaces. The ADM Industrial Corridors focus on high-quality industrial infrastructure along with enhanced multi-modal connectivity. Provisions have been made for ready industrial land with roads, ports, airports, uninterrupted power supply, water treatment systems, sewage and waste treatment facilities Frontier digital technologies such as blockchain, AI, broadband, cloud and mobile devices will be the core behind such a corridor along with stringent governmental policies and robust involvement of private sector.
HEALTHCARE INITIATIVE (HCI)
HCI aims to cut down the cost of healthcare services by an average of 50-70% per hospital by shifting from a high Capital Expenditure (Capex) based exploitative model to an Operational Expenditure (Opex) based model. HCI envisions a universal cover of healthcare services by promoting the concept of Self Care and empowering people to stay healthy.
The operational model for HCI will be PPPP (People, Public and Private Partnership), through which it will garner support and assistance from various research institutes, financial establishments, pharmaceutical manufacturers, insurance providers, etc.

AGRICULTURE CORRIDOR
SMART KNOWLEDGE AND AGRICULTURE CORRIDOR (SKAC)
Agricultural Corridor is innovative and ambitious initiative for sustainable and equitable agricultural development.

This will lead to increase in investment, production, productivity and employment. With improved coordination and linkages between states, regions and countries- agriculture corridor will undoubtedly revolutionize the socio-economic health of the world.
In India, SKAC is proposed to cover approximately 51% of the total geographical area encompassing 13 states in the northern region. An agricultural corridor in Africa (African Agriculture Corridor) is proposed as well.

- The system is based on the model of exploitation & deprivation
- Farmers are not treated as stakeholders in food supply chain.
- Farmers do not get their share due to fundamental architectural flaw in the system
- The infrastructure is not fit to carry the burden of huge Indian Population
