NORWEGIAN EMBASSY

Norwegian Ambassador in Estonia Mr Dagfinn Sørli

Greeting from Norwegian Ambassador to Estonia,
H.E.Mr Dagfinn Sørli

Norway and Estonia have developed a strong economic relationship over the last 25 years, and Norway is one of the most important sources of foreign investments in Estonia. Norwegian companies are involved in a broad range of business activities in Estonia, and the potential for new partnerships is great, in particular, related to ICT, innovation and green growth.

NECC is not only the key meeting place for Norwegian-Estonian business interests but also the Embassy’s most important partner in our efforts to stimulate trade and commercial relationships between Norway and Estonia. I recommend all companies with an interest in trade and economic relations between Norway and Estonia to join NECC and take part in their activities.
