This offers companies a very serious market and springboard.”
Dubai, where the business and finance worlds meet, is on its way to becoming the new market for Turkish IT companies.

The opening of Dubai Technology Marketing Office in the World Trade Center (DWTC), which also hosts the Gitex Global fair for the information and software industry, which was held for the 42nd time this year, was attended by Turkish Consul General in Dubai Mustafa İlker Kılıç, Dubai Commercial Attaché Ersoy Erbay, and again Dubai Commercial Attaché Hacı Hacı Hasan Kaygısız, Starcamp Global FZE and YTÜ Yıldız Teknopark General Manager Orhan Tanışman, MUSIAD Deputy Chairman Osman Caliskan and YTU Yıldız Technopark Deputy General Manager İsa Turgut İnci, as well as senior executives of important NGOs and technology companies from Turkey attended the meeting.
UNIQUE NETWORKING OPPORTUNITY OFFERED
Speaking at the opening, Turkey Dubai Consul General Mustafa İlker Kılıç stated that Turkish technology companies usually look west and recommended that they look east instead. Kılıç said: “Dubai market offers very serious opportunities to companies. The regional offices of many international companies are located here. This presents a very serious market and springboard to our companies. The networking opportunity offered by Dubai Technology Marketing Office is truly unique. Our companies should also be located in Dubai. However, it is not possible to do this by coming from Turkey, it is necessary to be here. If they are going to get service from you or make an investment in you, being a Turkish company is a plus. The Turkish brand is a brand that people value here and they want to see you here. Here they want to see your address, a phone number, otherwise you may encounter some obstacles. So come to Dubai, open a company and evaluate Dubai Technology Marketing Office. In the coming period, new breakthroughs will be made regarding the functioning of the center, teams will be formed, and a much better point will be reached. This is an opportunity for all of us, I believe that this opportunity will be used in the best way possible.”
