Our areas of work

Working model

Three responsibilities, one shared follow-up system

The scope of cooperation, the authority to represent and resource contributions are set out in writing for each project. Partner institutions retain their own identity and decision-making structures.

Explore the project process

  1. TÜBİAD acts as the umbrella

    It manages the shared agenda, institutional relations, project monitoring and resource planning together, and supports partner institutions in their projects.

  2. Partner institutions remain independent

    The business community, associations, foundations, universities, ministries, public institutions and affiliated platforms retain their own structures and decision-making processes, and come together with TÜBİAD in joint projects.

  3. Project teams deliver

    The lead team designated for each project is responsible for the timeline and the outputs.
