Türkiye comes to fore as ‘regional hub for entrepreneurship’
Türkiye is implementing policies to attract global capital and talent in tech startups as a regional hub for entrepreneurship, the head of Türkiye’s Investment and Finance Office told Anadolu Agency.
Ahmet Burak Dağlıoğlu, speaking on the sidelines of a GITEX AI Europe 2026 event in Berlin, stated that the Emirati summit is hosting one of the world’s largest tech gatherings, where Turkish firms are showcasing their offerings under the national pavilion.
Dağlıoğlu stated that Türkiye will host the GITEX AI fair in September, where the Berlin event acts as a preliminary for the Turkish event, as they are preparing for the major gathering in collaboration with the Industry and Technology Ministry.
“We will present Türkiye’s strong infrastructure and its future goals to participants from all around the world on the main stage, inviting them to tech events in Türkiye, while launching the Turkish branch of the GITEX brand,” he said. “We aim to bring together artificial intelligence (AI) and tech entrepreneurs in Türkiye with potential investors and customers on global platforms, and to attract more global investors to the country.”
