Executives are typically doing a good job at managing existing business, but the omnipresent need for growth requires ever more from them. Growth opportunities by way of product development and tweaking the existing business models have usually already been realised.

In 2025, we mark 500 years since the publication of the first book in the Estonian language – a historic milestone that has profoundly influenced Estonian culture and the development of our written language. To honour this significant anniversary, the Year of the Estonian Book will take place from 30 January 2025 to 14 March 2026, featuring a wide range of exhibitions, events, and initiatives that highlight the importance of books in shaping our national identity and cultural heritage.

The end of the year is always a special moment – a chance to pause, take a breath, and be grateful for all the work accomplished. I sincerely hope you can take this time to unwind, enjoy moments of joy, and embrace the well-deserved rest your dedication has earned. Whether it’s a walk in the woods, a delightful moment with friends at the skating rink, an inspiring concert, a heartfelt gathering with loved ones, or a long weekend with the book you've been waiting to read – the key is to find time to nourish both your soul and mind.
