T3 GİRİŞİM MERKEZİ

Startup Adventure of DENEYAP Technology Stars Begins!

Questions every Business

We believe that it is inevitable for Türkiye to realize the National Technology Initiative in order to voice its theses advocating for a fairer world more loudly, strengthen its economy, and be independent in all fields.

The T3 Startup Center aims to eliminate technical, commercial, and financial barriers in the birth, growth, and entry into the global market of national technology ventures within the Turkish startup ecosystem. It also aims to convert local capital owners into technology investors, bring high-value-added technology-producing ventures to the Turkish economy, and train qualified entrepreneurial candidates through entrepreneurship education programs offered to students.

The primary goal of Deneyap Technology Workshops is to create the driving force of the National Technology Initiative, which we consider essential for the development of our country, by educating young individuals with high competence in technology production. Deneyap Technology Workshops provide education in various fields such as Design and Manufacturing, Electronic Programming and Internet of Things, Software Technologies, Mobile Applications, Cybersecurity, Energy Technologies, Aviation and Space Technologies, Artificial Intelligence, Materials Science and Nanotechnology, Advanced Robotics, Robotics, and Coding.

Supporting the journey of turning ideas into projects and projects into ventures by enhancing the entrepreneurial abilities of students trained in technical terms at Deneyap Technology Workshops is aimed. In this context, the DENEYAP Startup Program is organized for high school students continuing their education and graduates of the DENEYAP Technology Workshops under the leadership of the T3 Startup Center.

Within the program, selected teams are provided with opportunities in 10 different areas, including financial support, entrepreneurship education, expert mentor meetings, grants and awards, as well as participation rights in events such as TEKNOFEST and Take Off.
