Conglomerate, from both academia and business world, attended the event. I am as a TUSIAD Technology and Innovation Working Group
President and Intel Middle East, Turkey and Africa Regional Director mostly
talked about corporate innovations especially and to some extent individual
innovations in her session. My ultimate message, to be remembered by the young

how you can do it differently. That’s the only way you can add value to your
life.’
