Scottish Development International, the international economic development arm of the Scottish Government, has announced the opening of its office in Hyderabad.
This marks the organisation’s entry into the Southern region. It is keen to tap the potential opportunities for collaboration in the areas of life-sciences, ICT, renewable energy, research and development, food and beverages.
Anne MacColl, Chief Executive Officer, SDI, said: “The opening of our new office in India and entry into South India reinforce our commitment to the market. This will also help accelerate bilateral trade and potential for collaborations.’’
Mark Dolan, Country Manager of SDI, said there has been a healthy increase in trade between India and Scotland in the last decade. This can get bigger as more companies work together.
A high-powered ministerial delegation from Scotland is likely to visit India in the fourth quarter of 2013, he said.
