Who can apply to the technopark?
Companies and entrepreneurs who carry out software, R&D or design activities, develop an innovative product or process and agree to carry out their activity in the zone can apply.
How long does it take to get the result of an application?
The scientific advisory board meets once a month. For complete applications the result is announced within an average of 15 working days.
Is there an application fee?
No. The preliminary meeting, application consulting and evaluation are free. Charges begin only after the move-in contract is signed, as rent and service charges.
My company is not yet established; can I apply?
Yes, you can apply to the Girişim Evi incubation programme as an individual entrepreneur. It is enough to establish your company in the zone during the programme.
Do I benefit from the tax advantages automatically?
No. To benefit from the advantages, the R&D or software activity must be approved by the zone management, staff must work in the zone and monthly notifications must be made on time. Your relationship manager will guide you through the process.
Does the exemption apply to my sales office outside the zone as well?
No. The exemptions apply to software and R&D activities carried out within the zone boundaries. Activities outside the zone and sales and marketing staff are outside the scope.
How long is the office lease?
It is 1+1 years for ready offices, 3-5 years for large R&D floors and a maximum of 2 years for prototype workshops. Growing companies receive priority for space on the same campus.
How can I use the shared laboratories?
Equipment is reserved from an online calendar. Trained users operate the equipment themselves and others work with a laboratory technician. Zone companies pay about half the market price.
What happens if I leave the technopark?
You can leave during or at the end of the contract term. Exemptions end from the date you leave. For ongoing grant projects we recommend checking the terms of the institution concerned.
Can companies with foreign partners apply?
Yes. Companies with foreign partners or foreign capital can also apply; the only requirement is that the R&D activity is carried out in the zone and the required documents are submitted.
