While Estonia was occupied by foreign governments for the majority of its history, it has flourished in its century of independence. More than two thirds of its population lives in urban areas, including Kohtla, Tartu and the capital of Tallinn, which is home to the majority of Estonia’s industry.
Estonia uses e-Governance, which means 100 percent of the country’s public services are available online at all times. This allows citizens to handle services like health and identification online. Estonia calls itself the “most digital country in the world” and cites that it is fifth in the European Union for the proportion of ICT, or information and communication technology, specialists in total employment.
These are some of the tech companies that make Estonia’s ICT industry thrive.
