Startup Estonia has announced that in 2022, Estonian startups recorded a turnover of 2.1 billion euros. This was an increase of 49 per cent on the previous year.
“Last year, the Estonian startup sector continued to grow. But in the third quarter, it was clear that efficiency and business sustainability were becoming more important than turnover numbers. This demonstrates the maturity and experience of our founders in managing companies and the will to prepare for possible setbacks in advance,” said Eve Peeterson, the head of Startup Estonia.
