The Story Behind the New EstVCA Brand
Over the past 15 years, EstVCA has been a key representative of Estonia’s private equity and venture capital industry. Our members attract global capital and help shape the growth of startups and scale-ups across the region. But as Estonia’s private equity and venture capital industry has evolved, so has our role as its representative. We’re no longer just representing capital in Estonia. We’re representing Estonia in the eyes of the global capital. That shift called for a new brand identity that reflects who we are today and where we’re heading.
Capital in Motion
The new EstVCA identity is built on two simple ideas:
Capital is borderless. And capital is never still.
It moves. It grows. It finds new opportunities, often across geographies, markets, and cultures.
And behind every investment is not just money, but people: founders, fund managers, LPs, lawyers, analysts, policymakers, a vibrant community working toward impact.
Our new logo tells that story in visual form:
- The letter C, representing both Capital and Community, rises up and to the right.
- A whitespace path runs through the logo, serving as a channel for the C, and signalling upward momentum and growth.
- 23.5 degrees tilt, inspired by the Earth’s natural axis, represents the global ambition.
- At the end of that path is an arrow, both a directional signal (up and right) and a swallow, Estonia’s national bird. Like Estonian capital and talent, the swallow is fast, global, and agile. But it always finds its way home.
Rooted in Estonia, Open to the World
Every part of our new identity is built on intentional contrasts: credible and approachable, grounded and global, professional and dynamic.
Estonia’s national blue is now our core color, a strong signal of trust and local pride.
We’ve kept a deep legacy purple as a subtle link to our past.
A new, fresh yellow adds energy, optimism, and forward-looking warmth.
We’ve also brought Estonian landscapes, forests, coastlines, and open fields into our visual language. These aren’t just backdrops. They’re reminders of where ideas begin, and where global capital often finds its next opportunity.
Why Now?
We didn’t redesign for the sake of it. We redesigned to reflect who we truly are:
- A voice for over 25+ active funds, and 25+ other industry players
- A connector between LPs and GPs, across Europe and beyond
- A trusted partner to government, founders, and investors
- A growing movement shaping the next generation of Estonian innovation
This isn’t just a new logo. It’s a statement of direction.
We’re moving capital, and the community behind it, forward.
We’re bringing Estonian excellence to the global stage.
And we’re doing it with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
Welcome to the next chapter.
