About Us
Since 2005, we have been a leading business council, dedicated to promoting the adoption and implementation of the sustainable development approach within the business community and raising awareness in this field.
We guide our members on their sustainability journeys, supporting them as they take concrete action to address the climate crisis, protect natural resources, and drive inclusive economic transformation – contributing to a more livable, balanced, and sustainable future.
In practice, we collaborate with the business community to achieve net-zero emission targets and enable sustainable systems transformation, accelerating this transition through projects, reports, and tools that advance the Sustainable Development Goals.
Our Vision
In line with Türkiye’s 2053 net-zero target, we harness the collective power of our members to build a sustainable and prosperous future.
To turn this vision into reality, we work with our members to integrate sustainability into business practices and support the infrastructure that will deliver lasting solutions focused on climate, nature, and social equity.
Leveraging the strength of our members, we lead in sustainability with a firm commitment to transforming business models — inspiring our stakeholder ecosystem along the way.
Together, we guide best practices for a more livable future, build strategic partnerships, contribute to policy processes, and support sustainable transformation through the tools and projects we develop.
We are the regional network and partner of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) in Türkiye. Through this partnership, we connect our members and stakeholders with global sustainability topics, working groups, and platforms.
Drawing on the experience and expertise of WBCSD, we advance green finance models, contribute to policy development, and support the monitoring of sustainability policies.
We facilitate our members’ access to global knowledge and work to position the Turkish business community for greater impact in achieving sustainability goals.
