The motto of the Machinery Summit, held for the third time this year, will be "The Machinery Industry in Its Centennial Year." The event, hosted by the Turkish Machinery Federation (MAKFED), will bring together public administrators, academics, and industrialists.
MAKFED, the umbrella organization of 32 sectoral associations representing over three thousand businesses operating in the machinery sector, is organizing the event. Taking place on October 26, 2023, in Istanbul, the Summit will address numerous topics regarding the future of the machinery sector.
MAKFED President Adnan Dalgakıran stated:
"The early Republic era, characterized by efforts to establish capital accumulation and develop a manufacturing power under public leadership in a society without an industrial infrastructure, laid the foundation for many businesses operating in the machinery sector today. The past century has seen Turkey sometimes rapidly increasing investments in industrial production, while at other times losing its competitive edge due to internal challenges. Now it is time to lift our heads, look forward to our shared future, and focus on the new century.
