OREANDA-NEWS. February 25, 2011. Foreign investor interest in Estonia is growing again - over 100 foreign investment projects are currently being processed by Enterprise Estonia, which is much more than in the two previous years put together.

Enterprise Estonia management board member Maria Alajoe said that only around ten foreign investment projects were being processed in 2008.

The state enterprise fund is even more pleased that to an increasing extent, foreign investors are looking for qualified workforce in Estonia, ETV reported.

"I would say the primary sectors are electronics and mechanical engineering where we clearly possess workforce of a good level," said Alajoe. "One could say we have become an integrated part of the corresponding sectors in the Nordics. IT and business services have also come to life."
