The San Diego Institute for Policy Research (SDI) was established in 2006 in San Diego by businessman and entrepreneur 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.
SDI's President and CEO W. Erik Bruvold was formerly the Vice President for Public Policy for the San Diego Regional Economic Development Corporation.
