I am a digital entrepreneur with a background in economics, marketing, and brand management. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in International Economics from Boğaziçi University and recently completed my Master’s degree in Marketing Communication at Stockholm University. Throughout my career, I have worked in marketing, brand management, event management, and community building, experiences that have allowed me to develop both strategic thinking and strong interpersonal skills.
My interests are centered around entrepreneurship, digital products, startups, and building communities. Over the past few years, I have had the opportunity to collaborate with international teams and work closely with entrepreneurs and professionals from different cultural backgrounds. These experiences strengthened my interest in creating products that solve real problems and bring people together. Today, I am the founder of CoClub, a startup that aims to make discovering and booking coliving spaces easier while helping remote professionals build meaningful connections.
I decided to participate in the Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs programme because I wanted to gain practical experience by working closely with an experienced entrepreneur who has successfully built and grown a business. While developing my own startup has taught me a great deal, I believe there is immense value in learning directly from someone who has already overcome the challenges of entrepreneurship. The opportunity to exchange ideas, experience a different business environment, and broaden my perspective made EYE a natural next step in my entrepreneurial journey.
I believe this programme can make a significant contribution to both my professional and personal development. Professionally, I expect to strengthen my entrepreneurial skills, deepen my understanding of business development and growth strategies, and gain practical knowledge that I can apply directly to CoClub. I also look forward to expanding my professional network and building lasting relationships with entrepreneurs across Europe. On a personal level, I believe working in an international environment will further develop my adaptability, communication skills, and confidence. I see EYE as a unique opportunity not only to learn from an experienced entrepreneur but also to contribute my own knowledge and perspective, making the experience valuable for both sides.
