what is the estonian startup sector dashboard?

The Estonian startup sector dashboard is a central tool for understanding and navigating Estonia’s startup ecosystem. It brings together up-to-date data from Statistics Estonia, the Estonian Tax and Customs Board, the Business Register, Dealroom, and crowdsourced investment records—offering a clear picture of sector trends since 2017.

• Fast, Informed, Impactful: Designed for data-driven decisions, it supports founders, policymakers, investors, and analysts in turning raw data into actionable insights.
• A Unified and Transparent View of the Startup Sector: The dashboard brings together official statistics, periodic updates from national registers, and curated insights from the startup community—offering a broad, regularly updated view of the sector, from demographic trends to GDP and investment flows. Most national data sources are updated automatically.
  • Demographic and economic data from Statistics Estonia are updated twice a year.
  • The Estonian Tax and Customs Board (EMTA) and the Business Register data are updated quarterly.
  • Crowdsourced investment data is updated on a quarterly basis in the dashboard.

All data is based on the startup sector company list from the Dealroom database, which is updated quarterly in the dashboard.
