Launched in 2014, Estonia's e-Residency programme saw enrollment of over 2,174 Indians out of which 1,062 individuals applied in 2018.

The embassy said that around 286 new Estonian companies were created by Indians in the process majorly from startups and other freelancers working on sectors such as web designing, software programming, content writing and others.

"Reliance Industries has set up a research centre for Jio in Estonia which aims at understanding digital society of Estonia and the benefit it can offer to India and Indians," Kruuv stated.

The Ambassador also noted that Estonia is the world's first country to introduce an e-Residency programme that offers individual access to a government-issued digital ID, adding that it enables the opening of a global European Union (EU) company fully online while working from India.

Disclosure:

RIL, the promoter of Reliance Jio, also controls Network18, the parent company of CNBCTV18.com.
