Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of today’s hottest topics. While it is certain to lead to a major revolution in the future, the real question today is how we will seize this transformation—and how the companies that get ahead will outperform their competitors.

At this conference, we will examine real-life examples of pioneering companies that have created success stories using AI. We will explore how these firms leverage AI, what investments they have made to grow, and the changes and transformations expected in the next 2–3 years. Our aim is for participants to leave the conference with valuable insights and actionable ideas that they can begin implementing as soon as the next day.

In our era shaped by constant technological progress, few topics have inspired as much hope and curiosity as AI. Rooted in the dreams of visionaries and the theories of mathematicians, AI has leapt from the world of science fiction to become a tangible force transforming global industries and societies. Through algorithms, data, and computing power, AI can analyze vast amounts of information, detect patterns, and make decisions with extraordinary speed and accuracy—symbolizing humanity’s effort to equip machines with the ability to learn, reason, and adapt like human intelligence. Today’s AI applications span every aspect of life, from healthcare, finance, communication, retail, and entertainment to reshaping investment strategies and becoming the centerpiece of global capital flows.

While AI inspires awe with its achievements and limitless potential, it also brings profound questions and challenges. As AI becomes increasingly embedded in our daily lives, these questions grow more complex. For instance, the excitement once centered on “Can the Turing Test be passed?” has quickly evolved into “If the Turing Test is passed, what new chapter in history awaits us?”

In this exciting yet uncertain landscape, the Boğaziçi Ventures AI Summit emerges as a guide for knowledge, collaboration, and innovation. Since its inception, Boğaziçi Ventures has pursued the vision of investing in startups developing disruptive technologies and supporting them on their entrepreneurial journey. With its next-generation technology-driven funds, it brings a new dimension to investment. Now, through the AI Summit—supported by Amazon, Hiwell, Commencis, and Skyloop as main partners, along with contributions from Cerebrum, Joygame, BV Portföy, Turkish Informatics Foundation, AI Turkey Platform, and Başlangıç Noktası—Boğaziçi Ventures is creating a platform where AI will be thoroughly discussed and where entrepreneurs, investors, technology enthusiasts, and experts can come together.

The summit program reflects the breadth and depth of AI’s impact, focusing on topics ranging from national strategic perspectives to industrial applications. In addition to keynote speeches and panels, the conference will feature dedicated parallel sessions on cloud technologies, gaming, and the investment ecosystem. Designed as a day of discovery, the summit invites you to explore the detailed program and distinguished speakers—and to join us through the event’s website.
