My organisation

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) serves as a bridge between Estonia and the world, advancing the country’s economic, political, and innovation interests internationally. Beyond traditional diplomacy, the Ministry plays an active role in business diplomacy by promoting Estonia’s interests abroad through a combination of diplomatic engagement and business support. It helps Estonian companies expand internationally, fosters partnerships, and supports exports—particularly in innovative sectors such as biotech and digital health—through its global network and close collaboration with industry stakeholders and the private sector.
