With 12 Estonian tech companies actively seeking collaboration opportunities, GITEX GLOBAL 2023 promises to be a hub of visionary technological prowess.
Estonia's global recognition as one of the foremost digital nations finds its roots in pioneering public service innovations, firmly placing it on the world stage. It boasts an impressive tally of ten unicorns and a per capita rate of successful startups that surpasses all other European countries.
At GITEX Global 2023, Estonia's roster of 12 technology companies will present cutting-edge innovations and introduce visitors to the nation's celebrated digital achievements.
