Prof. Dr. Sinan Canan: We’re at a wonderful event. I think in such a rapidly changing world, we can only find the right path by communicating with each other and updating ourselves quickly.

Niyazi Atasoy: Being able to follow developments within the sector, developments in AI and web-based applications worldwide, and having access to eye-opening new information is truly exciting.

Nermin Kahraman: I was very pleased to see agriculture being used in Fintech solutions and this being addressed within the Fintech framework with advanced technological aspects.

Gülçin Aytemizel Telatar: I can say that the sessions on artificial intelligence and blockchain were very comprehensive. It’s very gratifying that it had content that rivaled and surpassed many global-level organizations we’ve attended. Thank you to everyone for their efforts.

Demet Zübeyiroğlu: Both the participants, the speakers, and our sponsors each added value. In the fields of finance and artificial intelligence, our speakers, especially those from abroad, contributed significantly with valuable content. Players interested in the Turkish market continue to be present, and we’ve also started to see players aiming to target regional markets. This is a very valuable outcome for us and actually forms a foundation for future years. We strive to improve ourselves every year through feedback. I believe next year will surpass this year even further, and with Istanbul’s support, I have no reason why we shouldn’t become a Fintech hub.
