Our University participated in TEKNOFEST Southeast, held in Şanlıurfa, as an academic partner. Throughout the five-day festival, the University welcomed visitors to its exhibition stand, showcasing projects in technology, engineering and student innovation.
Featuring technology competitions, air shows, exhibitions and science activities, TEKNOFEST Southeast attracted more than 1.5 million visitors and participants from 97 countries.
The GreenFinova project, developed by Haliç University Faculty of Engineering students Elif Sanık, Egemen Bakraçlar, Batuhan Peker and Azra Nur Çam, also advanced to the final stage of the Financial Technologies Competition. The students presented their project to the jury at the festival venue, successfully representing Haliç University.
Our University Rector Prof. Dr. Enes Eryarsoy visited the TEKNOFEST Southeast venue, met with students and received information about the projects presented during the festival.
Emphasizing that TEKNOFEST is one of the leading platforms showcasing Türkiye’s growing capacity in technology development, Prof. Dr. Eryarsoy said:
“We are now capable of producing technology and we are experiencing the excitement of this transformation here. As a university, we are delighted to be part of this ecosystem. In the coming years, we aim to expand our participation and further strengthen our activities in this field. TEKNOFEST has been a highly positive experience for us, and we believe Haliç University will likewise offer a valuable and inspiring experience for all our students.”
As part of the festival program, Prof. Dr. Eryarsoy also met with Prof. Dr. Erol Özvar, President of the Council of Higher Education (YÖK). During the meeting, they exchanged views on recent developments in higher education and discussed the role of universities in strengthening the technology, innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem.
Kemal Bilal Aydın, Chair of the Board of Trustees of Our University, stated that large-scale events such as TEKNOFEST provide students with valuable opportunities to gain first-hand insight into technology development and innovation processes.
Aydın said:
“As a university, we attach great importance to encouraging our students to become active participants in the technology, entrepreneurship and innovation ecosystem, rather than limiting themselves solely to their academic disciplines. TEKNOFEST provides a valuable environment in which young people can learn from one another through their ideas, projects and a culture of interdisciplinary collaboration. At Haliç University, we will continue to support our students in becoming individuals who create, innovate and confidently pursue new ideas.”
