Miraculously, I visited. Tallinn. That in Estonia. It was interesting to compare the native and beloved Riga, with its 'northern sister '. I am primarily interested in the current situation with Web start-ups in the region.
Now, briefly about the main thing - Tallinn, on a course now. the most attractive. region (from the former Soviet Union ) to engage in online business. Why not?.
The atmosphere of the city. This is a real. Scandinavian city. All minimalistic and does not distract. Estonians are introverted and without emotion.
language. Yes, Estonians do not like to speak Russian, but the city is often heard Russian speech. But all the normal pros speak English;-).
Economy and Politics. Similarly, the most appropriate in all the Baltic States. Do not believe me? . response.
Prices. They are almost the same as in. Riga. In the movie, go to the evening show - 4 €, to drink tea brewing - a. 5. €, a tasty lunch at. LIDO. - 10. €.
Rent. In the center of the squares of 40-50 can be rented for 300 €. We look. city24. ee. and compare.
transport. Tallinn. - Super compact city. On a machine with no traffic jams can be accessed anywhere in 15 minutes.
Creating and maintaining business. In Estonia -. 17th place. in world championship. You can register your business in 24 hours. electronically.
offices. Many software companies are already live in a place called common. Ülemiste City.
Community. It is a small, but formed. Meet. Estonian Startup Leaders Club.
VC. There are people who understand what a Web start-ups and are willing to invest hundreds of thousands of euros in these projects. The most powerful investment fund -. Ambient Sound Investments. Created by engineers. Skype.
Less so far only one - the number of free talent in the labor market. Leading IT firms of all we catch, and the startups have no choice. Also, young people are afraid to feil.
