Estonian Expertise x Global Experiences
The Digital Leadership Masterclass is more than just a study visit—it’s an intensive, hands-on experience designed for digital leaders driving government transformation. Over an immersive week in Estonia, you will not only explore one of the world’s most advanced digital societies but also engage deeply with global best practices honed by Digital Nation’s work with governments across four continents.

Additionally, 1:1 workshop sessions offer dedicated support to help you lay the groundwork for your personal success in driving your government’s digital transformation.
