About this listen

Estonia is a country that punches way above its weight. In NATO, they are known as being experts in cyber security, while in the business world numerous major start-ups and tech companies emerged from the Baltic country. The origin of this technological prowess is often said to be in the 1990s when Estonia found itself free from occupation by the USSR. The reality, however, is much more interesting and stems from that very Soviet planned system. It developed within Estonia an appetite for systems-driven thinking we see only in a few other nations. Host James Orban explores this history and how it has imacted Estonia today.
