Estonia 2026: Growth Prospects and Cooperation Partners is a morning info session organised by Business Turku and the Enterprise Europe Network for companies seeking growth and new partnerships in the Estonian market.
Estonia is a natural and rapidly developing neighbouring market for Finland, offering concrete business opportunities, agile partners, and strong technological expertise—especially in the IT, digitalisation, and maritime industries.
The event will feature an economic outlook and future prospects of Estonia presented by Janne Jõesaar-Ruusalu, Ambassador of Estonia to Finland, as well as insights into strengthening IT cooperation in the maritime industry from Andrus Junolainen, Honorary Consul of Estonia. In addition, Irene Surva-Lehtonen, Export Adviser at Enterprise Estonia, will provide an overview of the Estonian business environment and how to find cooperation partners in Estonia. A company case will be shared by Mika Kinnunen, Country Manager at Proekspert Oy, focusing on software, embedded systems, and cybersecurity.
