Importance of internationalisation

Tallinn engages internationally because the city’s development increasingly depends on what is happening outside Estonia. Cities compete for talent, investment, knowledge and visibility, and many solutions to the challenges faced by cities are developed through international cooperation.

Internationalisation helps Tallinn to:

  • Bring new knowledge, experience and innovative solutions to the city
  • Strengthen the city’s competitiveness in attracting businesses, investments and talent
  • Increase Tallinn’s international visibility and reputation
  • Participate in decisions and networks that influence the development of cities in Europe and globally
  • Develop the skills and capacity of the city organisation’s employees


Tallinn’s goal is to be a green and innovative world city where digital and green innovation, a strong living environment and international cooperation intersect.


Internationalisation is not a separate activity, but a way to support all of the city’s development goals — from sustainability and climate resilience to the development of the economy, culture and education.


Therefore, Tallinn engages in international relations and cooperation in a systematic manner, focusing on themes and partnerships that create the greatest added value for the city.
