Global technology powerhouse Amazon has officially opened an office in Tallinn to strengthen its regional presence and deepen its commitment to Estonia. The new office will host Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Amazon Music teams.
Amazon Web Services, the world’s most comprehensive and widely adopted cloud platform, established its Estonian subsidiary in 2023. With the opening of its new Tallinn office, AWS aims to support customers across the Baltics.
“Amazon’s decision to open an office in Estonia once again confirms that our open and innovative business environment is attractive to international technology companies.”
Erkki Keldo, Estonian Minister of Economic Affairs and Industry
According to Amazon, the company is investing in Estonia due to the country’s strong potential. As more organisations move their mission-critical applications to the AWS Cloud, the company’s customer base in Estonia continues to grow.

“We have had the privilege of working closely with Estonian customers and partners for many years, supporting their innovation and digital transformation journeys.

“With a stronger local presence, we look forward to helping even more Estonian organisations accelerate their adoption of artificial intelligence and cloud technologies and build cutting-edge, world-class solutions on the AWS platform,” added O’Connor.
From a strategic perspective, this is an important step for Estonia — one of the world’s most recognised companies expanding its operations here. The Estonian government has supported AWS throughout the process, particularly through the Foreign Investment Centre of the Enterprise Estonia (EIS).
“We are pleased to support AWS in expanding its operations in Estonia. This is yet another example of the strategic investments Amazon is making across Europe — from creating new highly skilled jobs to launching AWS’s independent European cloud service.”

“Amazon’s decision to open an office in Estonia once again confirms that our open and innovative business environment is attractive to international technology companies,” said Minister of Economic Affairs and Industry Erkki Keldo. “This step brings new knowledge and investment to Estonia and lays a strong foundation for future cooperation between our entrepreneurs and global players. I’m confident that AWS’s presence will contribute to Estonia’s economic growth and the internationalisation of our companies. I wish Amazon success in implementing new opportunities in Estonia,” the minister added.
