If you want the most balanced option to start with, I recommend:
"National Research Funding and Cooperation from Estonian Research Council (Eesti Teadusagentuur - ETAG)."
I picked this because As the primary funding body, ETAG is the foundational hub for any researcher or institution looking to access scientific networks or financial support in Estonia.
