Global investors, particularly those facing visa and logistical challenges in attending European exhibitions, are eagerly awaiting ITM 2026, which offers a more accessible and comprehensive international experience. The existence of visa agreements between Türkiye and numerous countries such as India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Vietnam, Egypt, Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Iran, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan further enhances the importance of ITM 2026. Investors from the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and the Turkic Republics can easily reach Istanbul to see the latest technologies firsthand, establish direct contact with manufacturers, and develop business collaborations.

A strategic meeting point for global investors
