EXACTLY 40 YEARS…

A period when the world changed, trade routes were re drawn, and global balances were reestablished… And during this period, DEIK became a powerful bridge that made Türkiye’s voice heard around the world and extended the hand of Turkish entrepreneurs to all corners of the globe.

For years, we have proudly observed DEIK leading the way for Turkish companies to enter new markets through business councils, investment forums, and international partnerships. DEIK’s guidance is present at every table set up in the international arena and in every signature made.

Today, looking back on its 40th year, we see that DEIK has become synonymous not only with trade but also with Türkiye’s global vision. DEIK is not just a business platform; it is a strategic actor that carries Türkiye’s economic power and vision to the world.

As a journalist, wherever I go in the world, it always fills me with pride to report on the successes of Turkish businesspeople and to witness the Turkish diaspora becoming a force in different regions.

I wholeheartedly believe that in its 40th year, DEIK will further strengthen Türkiye’s position in the global economy by increasing its role in business diplomacy. Here’s to many more 40 years…
