⌖ In April 2020, I was appointed Co-Initiator of ARTBIZTECH with the task of internationalizing and transforming the company from its locally-based services as a Design Thinking agency operating out of Istanbul, TR.
Diverging from the limited scope of Design Thinking as basis of the company’s main operations, I envisioned a return to its namesake: catalyzing innovation through collaborations with emerging artists. This vision was incorporated in two folds:

⌖ 1 ⌖ Remodeling the consultancy into an expanded Innovation + Strategy consulting scope that focuses on new, creative perspectives to address contemporary challenges.
⌖ 2 ⌖ Establishing a creative and cultural incubator to materialize artistic concepts into products and models.
