EstVCA delegation accompanies Prime Minister Kaja Kallas in Denmark


This week a delegation of EstVCA members and start-up ecosystem builders had the chance to accompany the Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas in Copenhagen. The aim of the visit was to share experiences and find further synergies in Danish-Estonian start-up and investment communities and build bridges for even further cooperation on LP-GP and GP-start-ups levels.


It was so great to discuss market developments and cooperation initiatives with such high-level investor community members:
