In 2012, the European Union Agency for the Operational Management of Large-Scale IT Systems in the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (eu-LISA) became operational.

The agency's role is to manage the large-scale IT systems needed to implement the European Union's justice and home affairs policy. The headquarters of eu-LISA became Tallinn, the central place of business was Strasbourg, and the location of backup systems was Saint Johann im Pongau.

The paper provides an overview of the stages of setting up the agency and examines whether Estonia met its original goals in applying for the eu-LISA host country. The work's conclusions outline Estonia's opportunities to host new IT systems in Tallinn in the future.
