ITU ARI Teknokent on Media
Innogate | Always On, which is managed by ITU ARI Teknokent and offers domestic technology companies access to international connections, business model and strategy development opportunities, provides 24/7 support to technology companies thanks to its dynamic structure renewed in 2024. Providing online and offline support in 5 different markets (Germany, Netherlands, UK, UAE, France), the programme's first physical stop this year will be Germany with 15 technology companies.
