The region’s premier industry gathering returns to Istanbul in 2020, offering key insights into Turkey’s developing influence on the international trade stage.
Last year among other crucial talking points, discussions centred around new horizons for Turkish exporters, plus financial support mechanisms for aiding Turkish exports in 2020. With over 300 delegates from international and regional companies expected to be in attendance, this event is not to be missed for those wanting to extend their global reach and industry knowledge in this exciting market.
“The conference brings together finance and foreign trade professionals to share ideas and contacts, and features debates about new opportunities, better than any other event.”
