We believe that implementing the National Technology Initiative is of critical importance for Türkiye to more strongly demonstrate its vision of a fair world, increase its economic power, and achieve full independence in strategic areas.

In line with this vision, the TEKNOFEST Startup Program, implemented under the coordination of the T3 Startup Center, aims to transform the projects of entrepreneurs with technology-focused and scalable business ideas into sustainable, competitive, and rapidly commercialized ventures.

The program is specifically designed for teams and team members who have applied to TEKNOFEST Technology Competitions, and it aims to turn high-potential projects emerging during the competition process into startups, support their growth, and enable them to expand into global markets.
