OUR STORY
What is a coworking space?
Coworking space is the place where freelancers, teleworkers and small businesses share office space and, if they wish, exchange ideas and contacts. Working side-by-side and interacting with people of different backgrounds will create synergy and surprising ideas.
The first coworking space was created in 2005 in San Francisco, USA, with the premise of combining freelance freedom with the office culture. Europe’s first coworking space was opened two years later in Marseille, France.
”The work concept is changing. In addition to the traditional office, there are people who enjoy and prefer coworking. Different surveys have shown that employees are the happiest in coworking spaces. Coworking is also directly related to better work results! MELE PESTI, visioner of Edukontor<br />
In Kuressaare, a small group of coworking enthusiasts started to look for the suitable rooms already in 2009. In the summer of 2016, NGO Saaremaa Loomemaja succesfully hosted a creative cottage in the centre of Kuressaare, and with the new energy from this experience, already two new places were opened next spring.
Creative House of Saaremaa in Kuressaare Market Hall offers workshops of local artists and craftsmen. Learn more about the Saaremaa Creative House here.
To create a coworking office, we found suitable rooms at the central square of Kuressaare, on the second floor of the former grocery store called “Edu” (“success” in Estonian). These rooms had been empty and abandoned over a decade and were eagerly waiting for fresh color and new ideas.
Inspired by the history of the building, we named the new coworking space EDUKONTOR and the official opening took place in May 2017. NGO Kuressaare Edukontor was founded in November 2017.

PRAISE
I like the possibility of being close to the people at Edukontor. Working side by side with creative people inspire you to have wonderful ideas.
To deliver a really great perfomance, you need a time, place and inspiration. In Saaremaa you can find all of them at Edukontor. During coffee breaks you can load yourself with positive conversations and after that go deep into work in some quiet corner. Try it!
Edukontor is in the middle of everything, the location is the best of what can be. And there are many nice and active coworkers!
At Edukontor I like the most a positive atmosphere, good company and perfect location.
A really good place to work! If you work as a translator, you need a place where you can focus and, if you wish, isolate yourself. However, you sometimes need time to communicate with others or just look out of the window. At Edukontor you will get both - and even a coffee dripper V60!
Location is always very important for a business! Edukontor is in the heart of the city and the bonus is a great team. I can focus on my work here, and at the same time I have the opportunity to interact with other interesting and inspiring coworkers. I also appreciate the freedom - here I come to the office at the most suitable time and day.
Kuressaare Edukontor is a great place to turn on your laptop – you find a quiet corner to work in the office rooms but as soon as you step outside, holidays begin. A very nice coworking space if you want to enjoy vacation on the island of Saaremaa, but you can´t leave your work on the mainland.
After seven years working in the home office, it is very refreshing to come to work in the morning and leave home troubles behind. Common events and supporting coworkers is a great bonus!
A quiet place in the heart of the city bringing together the enthusiastic, active people! Very motivating.
