"There is a very beautiful interest"
Emphasizing that their stand at the fair was a cheerful and content-rich platform, Ms. Yılmaz said, "We have the opportunity to explore the works produced in our GIFs in a digital exhibition environment with VR glasses, and we have launched a digital kindness point project to make it easier for visitors from the private sector to make donations. We chose this place as a pilot point. It is a digital stand where they can easily make donations in the categories they desire. We have different workshops to expand the artistic aspect a bit more. There is a very beautiful interest."

Stating that the MÜSİAD EXPO Fair has created a very broad communication network internationally, our chairwoman said, "This is very valuable. The presence of different sectors here and their communication with each other will undoubtedly expand the business volume much more. We also see that different digital opportunities are provided here. This allows reaching a wide audience. I find this very valuable from the perspective of the private sector."
"Creating synergy on an international level"
Pointing out that the presence of different international companies at the fair is of great importance for the promotion of Turkey, our Board Chairwoman Av. Hatice Akıncı Yılmaz emphasized that these fairs also create synergy on an international level.
Ms. Yılmaz expressed that they participated in the fair to promote our foundation, stating, "It is very important for companies, the private sector to develop social responsibility projects both on an international and national scale. We are trying to create a vision at that point. Especially, it is very valuable for our companies in Turkey to take a step forward in this regard. It is very meaningful for them to make these social responsibility projects a part of their policy and strategy. At this point, we are trying to contribute as much as we can at the fair. Hopefully, in the upcoming period, these efforts will make an impact, and we will see more of our civil society and organizational institutions here, and the private sector will show more interest."
