For the sixth year in a row, EstBAN, Estonian Founders Society, EstVCA, Invest Estonia, and Startup Estonia invite Estonia’s innovation community for an evening to reflect on the past year and share optimistic visions for 2026 amidst the evolving startup, venture capital, and angel investment landscape in Estonia.
📍Join us on December 10 in Tallinn for an evening of engaging discussions and networking to bid farewell to 2025, and connect with the Estonian tech community before heading into the Christmas holiday.
In 2025, Estonia's startup ecosystem has shown resilience and adaptability. While the national economy faced challenges, the sector matured, focusing on efficiency and sustainable growth. Early-stage startups continued to attract significant investment, with approximately €73 million raised in the first quarter alone, accounting for about 70% of all capital raised during that period.

Karin Künnapas from Estonian Business Angels Network (EstBAN)
Allan Martinson from Estonian Founders Society
Hendrik Reimand from Estonian Private Equity and Venture Capital Association (EstVCA)
Kärt Klein from Invest in Estonia
Vaido Mikheim from Startup Estonia
