Scottish Development International

Scottish Development International (SDI) is the investment and trade promotion agency of the Scottish Government and its economic development agencies Scottish Enterprise and Highlands and Islands Enterprise.

Scottish Development International was established in 2001 by merging the export promotion agency Scottish Trade International (STI; 1991-2001) and the foreign direct investment and inward investment agency Locate in Scotland (LiS; 1981-2001). The agency employs approximately 250 people, including 90 outwith Scotland in 23 offices across 15 countries.

In the financial year 2009-10 SDI had a budget of £24.3 million, primarily from Scottish Enterprise’s grant-in-aid budget.[1]
