“Our clients are global players with a big vision,” says Angela Ventsel, founder and CEO of estx. She and her team aim to make starting a business in Estonia as smooth as possible for every e-resident, regardless of their background or location. “When someone entrusts their business to us, it is a big responsibility for us. We approach every collaboration consciously and value-based, doing our best to make the client feel truly at home in Estonia – regardless of the time difference or the country they are currently in.”
estx empowers e-residents from idea to action
estx combines knowledge of Estonian legislation and taxation with practical experience. Ventsel believes in the power of a personal approach and reliable support – the human touch. Her team helps e-resident entrepreneurs not only land in Estonia, but also grow confidently and succeed internationally.
“Our job is to be there when a client feels that it is difficult to do things alone. We offer clear recommendations, support and, if necessary, we refer them to the right partners. We don’t just give you answers, we help you find solutions,” she says. According to her, trust-driven collaboration is key to lasting success – and that real impact often comes from stepping up as a guide, sounding board or global bridge-builder.
e-Residency offers speed, clarity and access
Estonian e-Residency allows entrepreneurs around the world to run their business digitally, without physically coming to the country. Upon application, the Estonian state issues the entrepreneur a digital ID, which provides secure access to the Estonian business environment and allows you to use the services of one of the most advanced digital countries in the world. Moreover, setting up a company takes only a few minutes!
Today, there are over 125,000 e-residents in Estonia from more than 170 countries. They have created more than 35,000 companies. Speed, simplicity, freedom of location and a transparent business environment are the main reasons why e-Residency is of interest. In addition, it connects an international community of entrepreneurs, where cooperation and support help ideas grow and develop.
Opening doors for Ukrainian entrepreneurs – with zero barriers
When war broke out in Ukraine, estx did not stand aside. Ventsel decided to help Ukrainian entrepreneurs, thereby supporting Ukraine.
“Support was not a question of doubt, but a response of responsibility. Leadership means acting where it is needed most,” she says, adding that her own entrepreneurial experience has taught her how crucial a supportive environment and an extended hand are at the very beginning of the journey.
This is how estx has helped several Ukrainian clients start their entrepreneurial journey in Estonia. For example, Khrystyna Didukh – a successful entrepreneur, mentor and digital nomad – has already opened two companies thanks to e-Residency and the support of the estx team. This has allowed her to focus on her work, a new beginning and creating value and opportunities for others.
Global presence, human touch
The e-Residency card can now be obtained all over the world, from Buenos Aires to Tokyo and Madrid. Interest is high, and new applications and companies are added every week. Estonia offers a global entrepreneur more than just a business environment. Here you can belong to a community. And estx is the one who helps you take that first step.
estx clients are international and of varying sizes globally, but the approach is the same: always personal, practical and ambitious. They create companies, develop business, connect with the right contacts and help enter markets.
“Entrepreneurship is like a top sport,” says Angela Ventsel. “It requires perseverance, mental strength and constant self-improvement. Our role is to be a coach, a strategic partner and, when necessary, a voice that reminds you: you have everything you need to win. Be brave. Build boldly!”
