Reduced Costs
Although Scotland is one of Europe's premier locations for electronic design activities, the cost of living is considerably lower than many other areas in Europe and the US where hi-tech industries are concentrated. 

Attractive Place to Work and Live 
Scotland is both a rewarding place to work and an exciting, vibrant and progressive place to live. The country offers an unrivalled quality of life, rich in heritage and tradition. 

Financial Incentives 
Scotland offers a range of financial incentives for equipment investment, job creation and training to encourage you to become part of the growing design community. The Alba Centre staff, in conjunction with colleagues in the Scottish Executive and Locate in Scotland, will be delighted to discuss your requirements further. Following a discussion on the scale and nature of your plans, we can provide an indication of the appropriate level of assistance. 

Proximity to Key Industry Enablers
The VCX and ISLI are key elements of the global industry infrastructure. You need to be close to centres of excellence in both the structuring of a market for Virtual Component trading and in the development of methodologies for SLI design. Time to market is critical in the fast moving design industry.
