About
What we believe
EDISA stands for Economic Development and International Support Advocacy which is an international organization working with leading for-profit and non-profit partners across the globe. We provide strategic advisory services for governments, local and international institutions, and global corporations.
EDISA is the successor to International Public Relations Association (UHID), which was established in 2001, most well-known for its International Silk Road Summits
Today’s increasingly globalized world – accelerated by the end of Cold War in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the rapid rise of China fueled by the reforms of Deng Xiaoping, and the unprecedented growth of digitalization – offers both challenges and opportunities for individuals, corporations and governments. Therefore, our mission in EDISA is to build strategic partnerships to unlock valuable opportunities presented by globalization. In fact, over the past two decades, we completed 100+ projects across the globe.
We partner with leading experts in legal, financial, engineering, and business management fields to provide a holistic one-stop solution for different needs of our clients. Our extensive network of experts delivers an uninterrupted service experience while ensuring competitive advantage, capable operations and long term results.
We are deeply committed to the advancement of ESG (environment, social, governance) principles, thus, we refer to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at all levels of our organization.
