Researchers Meet Innovators Istanbul RSVP

Dear All,

We are finalizing the details of the event, which is to be held at KWORKS, Şişli, Istanbul (https://kworks.ku.edu.tr/iletisim/), on May 9 at 16:00-18:30. One or two more speakers have also agreed to share their experience in bridging science and business, so we are now finalising the program based on these changes. We will share it once it is posted on the MCAA website. 

In addition to board members of MCAA Turkey and MCAA Bridging Science and Business Working Group, some of the confirmed speakers include Pavlo Bazilinskyy (Eindhoven University of Technology; also Treasurer of the MCAA and former chair of MCAA Bridging Science and Business Working Group), Nelson García Polanco (CIRCE), Joaquin Capablo (Campus of International Excellence of the Ebro Valley; also Chair of the Spain and Portugal MCAA Chapter), Beril Boyacıoğlu Bakır (KWORKS), and Emel Sokullu (Koç University). As we mentioned earlier, one or two more speakers can also give a talk. Each speaker will speak for around 20 minutes about their experience in bringing science and business. We will also hold coffee breaks that will allow networking opportunities.

The Turkey Chapter can cover your travel expenses; please let me know if you would like your travel expenses to be reimbursed. 

Also, KWORKS has a limited seating capacity; therefore, please write to turkey.chapter@mariecuriealumni.eu if you have not done so to RSVP for this event. Feel free to share this opportunity with colleagues who may benefit from it; they can write directly to turkey.chapter@mariecuriealumni.eu if they wish to RSVP.

Once we finalize the program after hearing from other potential speakers, we will share the formal program and website link with you. 

Please feel free to contact us anytime with any questions or concerns.

Best wishes,

Ceyhun Arslan and Murat Güneş
