Investing in innovative technologies through funding
Gulman Group Management Board Chairman Of Polat Gulman: We recently adopted the UN principles of sustainable development and looked at what we could do to make business life as sustainable as human relations. We invested in renewable energy. We have GES facilities. After that came the venture capital business. Turks have an entrepreneurial spirit, but since they did not have much capital accumulation, no environment encouraged investment in areas that seemed risky. But we preferred to invest in funds. We invest in innovative technologies through funds. Moving forward through funds in businesses we do not know is much healthier. It passes through their filter. We invested in both renewable energy and venture capital funds under the name of sustainability. We have also invested abroad under real estate, as a partner in a publicly traded company in Sweden that operates dormitories. Housing is a critical area in real estate. The need for modern housing was very well organized there.
