We visited Mr. Rahmi Kula, Chairman of the Balıkesir Chamber of Commerce and Member of the Board of Directors at the Credit Guarantee Fund, and Mr. Okan Telaşeli, President of the Balıkesir Chamber of Commerce Assembly and Member of the Board of Directors at Balıkesir Technopark, to extend our gratitude for their sponsorship support to BaunTECH Start, Balıkesir’s first early-stage acceleration program, and for their contributions to the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

We conveyed our appreciation to Mr. Rahmi Kula for his support throughout the BaunTECH Start process and for his valuable insights as a speaker in the panel titled “From Local to Global: The Future of the Entrepreneurship and Investment Ecosystem.”

We transformed this collaboration into a meaningful and lasting step for the future by donating three saplings on behalf of the Balıkesir Chamber of Commerce within the scope of the “Breath for the Future” campaign. ????

Representing Balıkesir Technopark, the visit was attended by:
• Burcu Aydemir, General Manager
• Görkem İnce, Director of Administrative and Financial Affairs
• Oğuz Han, Coordinator of the Balıkesir Technopark Technology Transfer Office

BaunTECH Start has become one of the concrete starting points of Balıkesir’s technology-oriented entrepreneurship story, supported jointly by the university, the business community, and civil society. ????
