Yesterday, the AmCham Estonia team was proud to participate in the Tallinn Digital Summit 2025, where global leaders, innovators, and policymakers came together to shape the future of digital and AI policy.
A special highlight for us was co-hosting the "AI Forward" Mixer in partnership with Nortal- an engaging and informal gathering that celebrated the United States' leadership in the global AI landscape and fostered rich dialogue around innovation, policy, and international cooperation.

From meaningful conversations with leading voices in AI to relaxed networking over some of Estonia’s finest craft beer from Põhjala Brewery, the evening was a perfect example of what happens when great minds and good vibes come together.

🇺🇸🇪🇪 Huge thanks to our partners at Nortal (a special shoutout to Marki Tihhonova-Kreek and Maria Heinsar) for making this event possible — and to everyone who joined us for an inspiring and forward-looking evening!

On October 9, AmCham Estonia had the pleasure of hosting a Breakfast Meeting with the Delaware Delegation at Swissôtel Tallinn, Estonia, in collaboration with the Delaware Prosperity Partnership.
Estonian business leaders and startups joined us to explore why Delaware is a top entry point for European companiesexpanding to the U.S. market. Speakers Noah Olson (DPP) and David Mathe (State of Delaware) shared insights on the state’s strategic location, business-friendly environment, and world-class infrastructure — key reasons why 67% of Fortune 500 companies are registered there.
Parallels between Delaware’s small-state agility and Estonia’s digital innovation sparked engaging conversation about how both regions enable rapid growth and access to decision-makers.
We look forward to continuing our cooperation with the State of Delaware and the Delaware Prosperity Partnership — this meeting marks the beginning of what we believe will be a long-standing and fruitful relationship.

A big thank you to our guests and partners for a dynamic morning of transatlantic business dialogue!

Still feeling inspired by the Day 2025 in Tallinn! 💥
On October 7th, over 250 ambitious students from all across Estonia gathered at the PROTO avastustehas (Proto Invention Factory) for a day full of energy, ideas, and inspiration.
As part of the organizing team, it was incredible to see the enthusiasm from young minds eager to shape their futures—and to help bring this vision to life.

From powerful keynote speakers like Carl Pucci from EO59 and Michael Burich from Maison Beast to hands-on workshops with experts from Microsoft, FranklinCovey Eesti, AI Leap/TI-Hüpe, and CoinsPaid, the day was packed with real-world insights, practical tools, and bold encouragement. 🚀

This initiative - founded by Coca-Cola HBC and supported by AmCham Estonia and Junior Achievement Eesti - is all about equipping the next generation with both the mindset and the skills they need to succeed. Seeing that mission in action, and the impact it had on every student there, was something truly special.
Proud to be part of this journey. Let’s keep empowering youth to dream big and take bold steps toward their future! 🙌
