Estonian e-Residency: Success Stories from Switzerland
Event Details
The Estonian Chamber of Commerce in Switzerland (ECCS), in cooperation with Estonia’s e-Residency programme and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Estonia, is delighted to invite you to a unique milestone event: the first-ever gathering of Switzerland’s e-residents and founders operating Estonian companies on the 4th of November 2026 from 18.30-20.30 in Zürich.
Over the past decade, hundreds of Swiss entrepreneurs, consultants, investors, freelancers, and business owners have joined Estonia’s pioneering e-Residency programme and become part of one of the world’s most advanced digital business ecosystems.
