Martin Villig, Co-Founder of Bolt, Good Deed Education Fund founder, angel investor
Estonia is small but dynamic. It’s great to test new concepts and then scale them globally.
Andrew Thompson, Silicon Valley based investor and entrepreneur, co-founder LifeSpeed
Estonia is one of the most prolific tech economies in the world, rivaling Silicon Valley and Israel for both creativity and productivity. It is a great place to connect with motivated innovators who want to build something massively impactful that can deliver spectacular financial returns.
Helise Johanson, ReloEst, Relocation service provider
Startup Estonia’s Startup status simplifies the relocation process, empowering founders to tap into Estonia’s business scene and hire global talent more smoothly for their business growth.
Kadri Tammai, the Head of Tehnopol Startup Incubator, one of the leading accelerators in the New Nordics
Due to the reasons that Estonian startups don’t have a significant home market, they have the mindset to build fast-growing global companies from day one.
Karoli Hindriks, CEO and founder of Jobbatical
With its tight-knit tech community and global outlook, Estonia is an inspiration to Jobbatical and other startups to tackle tough, worldwide challenges.
