San Diego Institute for Policy Research

San Diego Institute for Policy Research

The San Diego Institute for Policy Research (SDI) was established in 2006 in San Diego by businessman and entrepreneur [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Francis_(Businessman) Steve Francis] . SDI formulates and promotes high quality economic, policy, and public-opinion research so as to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of local governments in San Diego County and to improve the quality of life enjoyed by the region's citizens.

Since its founding in 2006, the Institute has published a bi-monthly update on the San Diego Economy, several policy briefs on issues impacting San Diego, a half-dozen longer monographs and done extensive polling with CERC. The Institute also publishes a weekly column in the "San Diego Daily Transcript".

One recent study by SDI, on the economic impacts of the High Speed train project in San Diego, was funded by the California High Speed Rail Authority. The funding was explicitly noted in the study, the press release, and in public presentations.
