25 February 2026 TOBB×Bpifrance Joint Meeting

Dear Member,
With reference to the letter sent to our Chamber by TOBB, Bpifrance (Banque Publique d'Investissement) is France's public investment and development bank, which supports entrepreneurs worldwide with financing and partnerships, and operates as a partnership of the French Ministry of Economy and Finance and the French Deposits and Consignments Fund. The institution's core mission is to provide financial support to entrepreneurs, SMEs, mid-sized enterprises and innovative companies in France and to increase the country's economic growth and competitiveness. In this context, it provides support in areas such as company formation, growth, innovation, digital
transformation, industrial investment and internationalisation. In particular, innovation- and R&D-focused start-ups are among Bpifrance's priority target groups. As France's Official Export Credit Agency (ECA), Bpifrance offers strategic financing solutions enabling Turkish companies to finance and secure their direct purchases of machinery, equipment and materials from French suppliers.
In 2025, Bpifrance provided over 20 billion euros of financing within the scope of export-oriented activities, of which 1.8 billion euros consisted of commitments in Türkiye. Bpifrance operates through offices on all continents around the world, and the Türkiye market is the only market in the world followed simultaneously by Bpifrance through two separate regional offices, located in Casablanca and Dubai.
In this context, in cooperation between Bpifrance and TOBB, it is planned to hold a webinar on Wednesday, 25 February 2025 between 11:00-12:00, at which Bpifrance officials will provide information on Bpifrance's strategic financing solutions. The webinar will be aimed at companies operating throughout Türkiye with a turnover of approximately 10 million euros, which have been in operation for at least 3 years and which have investment plans involving equipment and depreciable assets. Companies attending the seminar will have the opportunity to ask questions to Bpifrance experts, and the seminar's language will be English. Our companies wishing to participate in the said seminar, whose draft programme is submitted in the annex, are required to complete their registration (in English) at https://tobb-org.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_EZC6mshuQ3GTM1aZ_TtDSw by the end of working hours on 24
