Notable Tallinn-based and Estonian-founded companies: e-Residency success stories and cross-border unicorns.
Estonia's e-Residency program lets non-residents incorporate and operate an EU-based Osauhing (OU) entirely online. Retained profits are taxed at 0% (tax only triggers on distribution, at 20%), making Estonia popular for reinvesting startups. Notable alumni include Skype (since acquired by Microsoft via a Luxembourg holding), Bolt, Pipedrive and Wise.
