Our careers have been built as technology entrepreneurs. After successfully building and selling our companies, we decided to invest in technology ventures and help them to reach their ultimate dream. We do financial investment and provide top-level support for international growth through our investment funds. Our aim is combine the power and experience of traditional capital with the disruptive and talented technology ventures. Both sides need each other and Boğaziçi Ventures plays a key role to moderate the long-term relationship. Each of our fund has its own target focused technology vertical, investment strategy and dedicated management team. Investors can build bridges with technology companies through Boğaziçi Ventures while enjoying the benefit of high financial return of the tech industry. Boğaziçi Ventures aims at investing in tech-ventures which are willing to bring down the traditional industries and capable of developing evolutionary technologies, and engaging investors into these fields to make the ecosystem in our region grow sturdily and survive. We believe that Eastern Europe, Turkey and the MENA region are ideal geographies to develop the technology. Accordingly, we aspire the talents and capabilities in these regions to set good examples similar to our previous global success stories with proper financial and in-kind support, contribute to this geography and provide superior returns to our investors by enhancing these examples. By investing in disruptive future technologies such as blockchain, machine learning, artificial intelligence, internet of things in the fields from health to security, digital games etc.
