We were at Take Off Istanbul 2025!
We were once again on the ground at Take Off İstanbul 2025 as a VC Partner, together with our team throughout the fair.
Over two productive days, we engaged in meaningful conversations with founders, investors, and ecosystem leaders, exchanging insights on early stage investing, global expansion, and cross border growth.
Mustafa Kopuk moderated the panel “How VCs Unlock Global Success from Emerging Markets” as part of Take Off İstanbul Talks.
Yagiz Karadeniz was interviewed by the Take Off media team, sharing perspectives on venture capital and emerging markets.
New connections were formed, promising collaborations are ahead, and the momentum continues.
Special thanks to the Take Off İstanbul team, T3 Vakfı, İrem Bayraktar Aksakal, Necmettin Gürses, and the entire organizing team for delivering such a high quality and impactful gathering.
We also appreciate the esteemed leadership of Selçuk Bayraktar, whose vision continues to inspire innovation and collaboration across the ecosystem.
Grateful to be part of such a dynamic platform.
