One of Türkiye’s most prestigious entrepreneurship competitions, the “Promising Startups” competition organized by in4startups, is taking place this year with Akbank as the main sponsor. As part of its commitment to the entrepreneurship ecosystem, Akbank will provide mentorship and financial support to the winning startups.
Held annually to help local and international investors discover promising ventures, the “Promising Startups” competition is now open for applications. Participants from all regions of Türkiye can apply and get the opportunity to meet with leading national and global brands.
In 2023, the competition introduces a new dimension: entrepreneur-friendly institutions and executives will also be recognized for their contributions. Additionally, Sustainability Special Awards will be presented to selected organizations and leaders making a positive impact on the ecosystem.
This year, startups will compete in 15 different categories, each with its own special award. The best ventures will be selected by a distinguished jury, and all participants will have the chance to showcase their innovations.
The award ceremony will take place in December at the Startup Investment Summit, where top-performing startups will pitch to leading investors and hold one-on-one meetings with potential backers. Applications are open until October 10 via 👉 https://gelecekvadedenler.com
