What is Startup Estonia?
Startup Estonia is a governmental initiative aimed
to create more success stories of startup companies in Estonia by developing three building blocks: availability of human resources and capital, open and connected community and services, and transparent and straightforward regulative infrastructure.
For that, we are working on making Estonia one of the world's best places for startups, partnering with and uniting the best of startups, incubators, accelerators, and private and public sectors.What exactly does Startup Estonia do?
Today, Startup Estonia divides its activities into 4 categories:- Strengthening the Estonian startup ecosystem – uniting and building the community through different events and activities, creating and executing unified marketing and branding strategies, assisting regional development and science-based decision-making;
- Co-organizing impactful startup events with the community, advocating diversity in age, gender, culture, and background;
- Working on educating the local investors and attracting foreign investors to Estonia, helping available resources and vital know-how to reach startups and the community;
- Working on eliminating regulative issues and barriers that complicate operating a startup, investing or raising funding in Estonia, and implementing startup-friendly regulations such as the Startup Visa.
