The Magic of the Baltics
summary
Three Baltic countries with 6 million people claim 3,000 startups and around ~15 unicorns, built on e‑government (e‑ID, e‑health, e‑signatures) and a national choice for a knowledge economy. Examples: Nord Security (NordVPN, NordPass, Surfshark) scales after bootstrapping dozens of attempts, Klaus uses AI to score customer‑service conversations, Cachet tailors insurance to gig work, and a population genome bank plus post‑2007 cyber investments fuel biotech and security bets. Tax rules like zero tax on reinvested profits and remote‑first hiring accelerate global scaling.
