It\u2019s a practical mechanism that helps an ecosystem stay resilient when external inflows slow down \u2013 and it may help explain why Estonia, despite its small size, has built an outsized reputation for entrepreneurship.\r\n<h4><strong>Why ecosystems matter more than individual startups<\/strong><\/h4>\r\nHarima notes that the concept of an entrepreneurial ecosystem entered academic discussion roughly 15 years ago. In simple terms, it describes the network of actors and dynamics that together help startups grow and succeed. Entrepreneurs sit in the centre, but they are surrounded by supporting players: venture capital, accelerators and incubators, universities, and public-sector actors that shape the environment for startups.\r\n\r\nThe key is interaction. These actors cannot operate as separate \u201csilos\u201d if the ecosystem is to work. The ecosystem, as Harima defines it, is the shared environment created by their connections \u2013 a setting where startups can flourish because capital, competence, ideas and support structures are able to meet each other.\r\n\r\nIn Harima\u2019s current research, the focus shifts from building an ecosystem to maintaining it. \u201cResource recycling\u201d is not about turning materials into new products, he stresses, but about reusing human capital, financial capital and experience inside the startup community.\r\n\r\n\u201cResources that are already present in an ecosystem don\u2019t have an end life. They are recycled into new roles \u2013 someone might start as an entrepreneur and later become an investor, a mentor or a supporter of new startups<strong>,\u201d<\/strong> Harima explains.\r\n\r\nTeams that built a product, learned a market and developed networks can move into new roles \u2013 joining other startups, founding new ones, or working in support organisations. Even investors learn: a failed venture can still generate insight and relationships that influence smarter decisions later.\r\n\r\nSuccessful exits can work in a similar way. Harima points out that entrepreneurs who sell their businesses rarely take the money and disappear. Often, they re-enter the ecosystem as investors, mentors, accelerator builders or community organisers. Resources do not reach an \u201cend of life\u201d \u2013 they change form.\r\n\r\nThis recycling becomes especially important during external shocks. If an economic downturn or geopolitical uncertainty reduces new inflows \u2013 capital, people, opportunities \u2013 then the ecosystem\u2019s survival depends on whether it can keep reusing what it already has.\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cResources that are already present in an ecosystem don\u2019t have an end life. They are recycled into new roles \u2013 someone might start as an entrepreneur and later become an investor, a mentor or a supporter of new startups.\"<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;","image":null,"align":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":20225},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","type":"text","text":"<strong>The strength\u00a0 and limits\u00a0 of a small ecosystem<\/strong>\r\n\r\nHarima argues that Estonia\u2019s size is not a disadvantage here \u2013 it can be a structural strength. \u201eEstonia as a country \u00a0is small, but the ecosystem is large and successul, yet at the same time it feels like a community. People know each other, trust each other, and feel that their work is not finished yet.\u201d\r\n\r\nHe adds that ecosystems are rarely one single circle. They often consist of smaller nested communities within the larger startup landscape. Defence tech as a rather young community is one example he highlights: actors in this space \u2013 founders, investors, supporters \u2013 meet each other regularly, share context, and operate as a tight network.\r\n\r\nAt the same time, Harima flags one major risk to recycling: resource outflow. If startups scale in Estonia but then relocate after raising large foreign rounds \u2013 moving operations to hubs like London \u2013 resources can leak out instead of looping back in. For a small country that relies on international capital, this is a structural tension: external money is necessary, but it can also pull companies away.\r\n\r\n<strong>Failure as a source of strength<\/strong>\r\n\r\nDespite these risks, Harima believes Estonia is in a strong position internationally, especially in Europe. He links this to the ecosystem\u2019s history of unicorn-scale success: unicorns concentrate both financial capital and human capital. People who have experienced fast growth inside a unicorn carry rare skills and lessons that can be recycled across the ecosystem.\r\n\r\nHe also highlights Estonia\u2019s comparatively healthy relationship with failure. In some countries, he notes, a failed startup can stigmatise a founder (he contrasts this with his experience of Germany\u2019s more conservative business culture).\u201cIn a weak ecosystem, failure can destroy resources. In a strong ecosystem, failure redistributes them.\u201d\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, Harima points to three forces shaping Estonia\u2019s startup ecosystem: the rapid and unpredictable development of AI, which could fundamentally change both innovation and human capital; the strong rise of defence tech, fuelled by geopolitical pressures and a shift in entrepreneurial focus; and the continued growth of deep tech and AI-driven startups, increasingly supported by public-sector initiatives.\r\n\r\nAsked to name Estonia\u2019s next unicorn, Harima refuses to speculate \u2013 not because he doubts the potential, but because there is too much it. He notes that defence tech in particular shows strong momentum, yet faces unique challenges: long sales cycles, dependence on a limited set of state customers, and complex procurement processes.\r\n\r\nIn Harima\u2019s view, the goal is not to predict the next winner, but to understand why some ecosystems endure. \u201cEcosystems become sustainable through recycling. They don\u2019t become sustainable by minimising failure, but by maximising what gets reused after failure occurs.\u201d\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cEcosystems become sustainable through recycling.
