We would like to emphasize once again our belief in the importance of cooperation with the leading academic institutions of our country. These collaborations not only enable Turkey to contribute significantly to global research on new technologies, but also nurture and upskill the country’s qualified human resources. In addition, as the Hexa-X project is in full swing, we will continue to work with the academia to explore future connectivity solutions, especially 6G technology, with the goal of a more connected digital future.”
