The AI Development Programme
The AI Development Programme is for Estonian businesses and is designed to accelerate the creation and the international growth of new AI companies.
The AI Development Programme
The aim of this programme promoting the creation and international growth of Estonian companies using AI is to help new companies that are developing unique products and services built on AI to go to market. The programme boosts the international skills of companies and aids their fundraising and expansion into international markets, and it helps them find opportunities for cooperation and funding from across Europe to speed their growth and development.
The AI Accelerator is part of the AI Development Programme and helps technology companies creating new solutions built on AI to go to market. The accelerator is backed by a specialist training series focused on AI together with mentors and experts who are among the best in the business and who work each week with the teams.

The AI Development Programme has been created jointly with the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications to introduce artificial intelligence technologies into Estonia.
