Teknopark İstanbul

Teknopark Istanbul is one of Türkiye’s leading technology development zones, established in 2010 to accelerate the commercialization of high-value R&D and innovation. Located next to Sabiha Gökçen International Airport, it hosts a rapidly growing ecosystem of startups, scale-ups, and R&D companies supported by comprehensive innovation services. Through its flagship programs such as Cube Incubation, Teknopark Istanbul provides early-stage entrepreneurs with office space, technical infrastructure, mentoring, training, and direct access to investors and industry partners. In parallel, its Technology Transfer Office (TTO) plays a key role in supporting intellectual property management, project development, and university–industry collaboration.

Beyond incubation, Teknopark Istanbul strengthens the ecosystem with dedicated financing mechanisms such as the Teknopark Istanbul High Technology Venture Capital Investment Fund, which enable startups to access early-stage and growth-stage capital. These instruments, combined with acceleration programs, internationalization support, and strong industrial connections, have resulted in numerous success stories, including startups that have scaled globally, achieved significant export revenues, and won awards at national and international innovation platforms such as TEKNOFEST and ISIF. With its integrated approach that combines infrastructure, funding, and strategic support, Teknopark Istanbul continues to play a central role in transforming innovative ideas into globally competitive companies.
