Preparing to announce the new Internet entrepreneurs they will support in 2010 at its meeting on January 30, etohum organizes a 4-day Entrepreneurship Camp for the candidates in February. Many well-known and successful Internet entrepreneurs such as Ali Sabancı, Emre Kurttepeli, and Sina Afra also participate as guests in the camp to share their first-hand experience.

Bringing the entrepreneurs who have knowledge and business idea on the new economy together with companies and professionals who may make investments in this area, etohum will announce 15 Internet entrepreneurs into which they will make investments in 2010 at its meeting on January 30. The candidates who will be supported by etohum will participate in a 4-day etohum Entrepreneurship Camp to be held in Rixos Premium Belek, in Antalya, from February 18 to 21, with the sponsorship of Rixos Hotels.

Giving trainings to the candidates on various areas from drawing up a business plan to making presentation to the investors, the camp will also entertain the well-known and successful names of the e-business industry as guests. Ali Sabancı, founder of the Pegasus Airlines; Burak Divanlıoğlu, Serkan Borançılı, and Tolga Kabataş, founders of GittiGidiyor; Nevzat Aydın and Melih Ödemiş, founders of yemeksepeti.com; Emre Kurttepeli, founder of Mynet; Sina Afra, Turkey representative of eBay; Tümay Asena, founder of the Nokta Internet Technologies; Erdem Yurdanur, founder of Mackolik.com, and Sedat Kapanoğlu, founder of eksisozluk.com, will meet the new Internet entrepreneurs and share their experience with them.

Burak Büyükdemir, founder of etohum, talked thus on the event: “2010 will be the year of the new Internet companies. The companies that are founded on recession periods are able to organize their business processes more efficiently than their competitors. At etohum, we believe that these companies will grow very rapidly, after the crisis has been overcome. Most of the Internet entrepreneurs founded during the 2001 crisis have become large-scale companies. And now they lead the new Internet entrepreneurs. Companies founded in those times, such as yemeksepeti and GittiGidiyor, support the new entrants and share their experience with them through etohum. In addition, a huge increase has been achieved in the user number, due to the proliferation of the high-access Internet service in Turkey. As a result, Internet has become part of the daily life. Many foreign Internet websites have been flooded by Turkish users. Many companies plan to shift its advertising expenses towards Internet. Therefore, Internet companies founded in Turkey are expected to be the favorite of investors in 2010.”
